THE CLIMATE CRISIS IS AN ALL HANDS ON DECK PROBLEM.
U.S. CLIMATE FINANCE TRACKER
The CFT-U.S. is the first visually searchable ecosystem of over $230B in private investment and philanthropic grants to over 6,000 US-based companies and nonprofits whose descriptions mention terms relating to climate mitigation or climate adaptation.
In the next decade, trillions of dollars in investment will be made in climate solutions. How can we ensure this capital is distributed effectively and equitably? To help inform their decisions, climate funders need to consider the big picture, spot gaps, redundancies, and opportunities, and work together to secure our future.
The open-source framework for creating these trackers is being developed by Vibrant Data Labs with a growing ecosystem of collaborators. Get in touch with VDL at info@vibrantdatalabs.org.

ALL THE HANDS NEED TO SEE WHAT THE OTHERS ARE DOING.
The climate crisis will never be solved alone. These Climate Finance Trackers are designed to help climate funders and ‘ecosystem builders’ better collaborate by easily exploring: who is funding what, who to talk to for shared learnings, where are the gaps, and what type of capital could be most effective where.
CLIMATE CO-INVESTOR TRACKER
The Climate Co-Investor Tracker inverts the data from the Climate Finance Tracker (so the data points are funders rather than recipients) and shows patterns of co-investments to US-based companies whose descriptions mention terms relating to climate mitigation or climate adaptation. Investors are linked if they co-invested in at least one company together. The colored clusters are groups of investors that co-invest with each other more than expected by chance.
Due to the nature of the climate crisis and the interdependence of solution components, climate investors need to consider not only de-risking their own investments but also de-risking the whole solution system at large.
