Six trillion ways to solve climate change

abatify summary
Ecosystem Impact

The multi-faceted 'wedges' approach emphasizes the preservation of carbon sinks and the restoration of biodiversity by integrating land-use management and nature-based solutions into a broader mitigation strategy, effectively slowing habitat degradation.

Systemic Reality

This modular framework shifts the global climate transition from a search for singular technological breakthroughs to a diversified portfolio of policy and financial instruments, reducing investment risk and enabling a more resilient, cross-sectoral decarbonization of the global economy.

New research shows that mixing and matching manageable climate policy 'wedges' can add up to real solutions.
