The climate tech sector in Australia is newish, smallish, but growing like crazy.
One of many investment firms focusing on climate tech startups is Investible—this is what they say on their climate tech page:
As the world moves toward net zero carbon emissions, climate technologies are already changing the way we eat, live, move and work.
Within the next ten years, these innovations will create new industries, and reinvent the way incumbents do business.
Investing in climate technology capitalises on the strong macro tailwinds generated by growing awareness of climate change, changing consumer preferences and business requirements, as well as government support.
Combined with the global reallocation of capital away from fossil fuels, this is a once in history opportunity to build successful companies while helping preserve the quality of life on this planet.
No need to paraphrase right? Pretty much says it all.
Once your money is clean (switched out of dirty banks etc), a really simple way to start putting it to work for you is by micro-investing through platforms like Bloom Impact or Spaceship (through their “Earth” portfolio).
For self-employed creatives, normal business traps are easy to fall into and overcomplicate things - but they’re totally avoidable when flying solo.
