Grateful to have been part of the 2024 Future of Climate Summit (Vol. II), where powerful conversations and visionary ideas took center stage. One of the key takeaways was the reminder that "we all want to be happy," and achieving that requires a holistic approach to the challenges we face. From discussions about the increasing complexity of our world to the need for smarter, more sustainable solutions, it was clear that we need to act collectively and share our successes globally. The summit reinforced the idea that collaboration and storytelling are key to replicating positive outcomes in other parts of the world. Now, more than ever, we need to show the path forward and work together for a resilient and greener planet. Feeling inspired by the incredible people I met and the actionable ideas shared. Time to turn this momentum into meaningful impact!

Today, on the #InternationalDayofCleanEnergy, we at Apical Group, a proud member of the RGE Group, reaffirm our commitment to sustainable energy solutions. In an era where clean energy is not just a choice but a necessity, we are actively steering towards a greener future through innovative practices in the bioeconomy sector. Recently, at the World Economic Forum 2024 in Davos, Anderson Tanoto, Managing Director of RGE Group, shared enlightening insights on clean energy innovations. He emphasized the crucial role of utilizing waste as a resource. "It's about seeing waste not as an endpoint, but as a starting point for something new and energy-efficient," he emphasized. At Apical Group, we are pioneering in transforming waste into wealth. Our waste-to-energy projects are a testament to our commitment to the circular economy. We believe in a world where every by-product is a chance for new energy, reducing waste and promoting environmental sustainability. The journey to clean energy is filled with challenges, but it’s a path we are dedicated to pursuing. Through innovation, collaboration, and a deep commitment to sustainability, we are making strides towards a cleaner, greener future. We invite you to join us on this journey. Watch the video below to harness the power of clean energy and make a lasting impact on the world. #Sustainability #Bioeconomy #WEF2024 #Davos #CircularEconomy #innovation

🌱 What does it mean to become Climate Positive at #WEF 2024? In just 1 week, I will be heading to #Davos to set up the first ever #ClimateHubDavos for #WEF24. Climate Hub Davos will be a home base for people working on climate and biodiversity, and also a welcoming and open space for anyone curious about how to mobilise their money, lives, work, colleagues, and network for the most essential business priority of the next few years: Becoming Climate Positive. 🌍 Why #ClimatePositive? Because it’s what will actually work to stabilise both our climate and nature –underpinning everything we depend on! ❌ Simply removing the greenhouse gas emissions we produce is #notenough.  ❌ Continuing to make our work and lives dependent on #fossilfuels is illogical.  ❌ Waiting for others to take action first, watching for governments to enforce all the rules or expecting market forces to fix it all will be #toolate.  ✅ So, let’s raise our ambition and reset the bar of how we run business, treat each other and value nature. 📍Come by Climate Hub Davos on January 16, 17 or 18, between 10.00-17.00 and... • Watch an eye-opening cinema screening • Try a planetary bite to eat  • Spin the lucky wheel to win a climate positive action • Cast your vote for future Davos Weeks • Attend a topical session on Climate Justice, Finance Solutions or Circularity No matter your type of business or purpose during #DavosWeek, visiting the Climate Hub will be a must-do. You’ll get inspiration to play your unique and critical part in our Climate Positive future. Show up for the climate, nature, each other and all species!

As #IETA's North American Climate Summit (#NACS2024) draws to a close, we're celebrating the incredible success and showing that markets work. Thank you to John Podesta, Senior Advisor to the President for Climate Policy for a powerful keynote address calling for markets to deliver "direct, tangible benefits to communities". Over the three day #summit headlined by Dirk Forrister and Stefano De Clara, discussions around compliance and voluntary markets were enriched by the insightful contributions of those involved in shaping them. It’s clear that markets have the power to drive meaningful change. In case you missed it... 📍 IETA signed agreement with Africa Carbon Markets Initiative (ACMI), signifying our commitment to strengthen voluntary carbon markets in Africa. 📍 105 Global South Communities and Small Businesses called on SBTi to approve the use of carbon credits for Scope 3 in its standard. 📍 Recordings of our plenaries will be available next week: https://lnkd.in/g6UESHUZ Thank you to all of our sponsors and everyone who joined us at #NACS2024. We're already looking forward to 2025! #ClimateAction #Sustainability #MarketsWork #CarbonMarkets #ClimateAction #JustTransition #ClimateLeadership #IETA #ClimateWeekNY

Climate was core to this year’s World Economic Forum agenda. But while clean energy and green tech took center stage, corporate pledges or talk of loss and damage were conspicuous in their absence. Laura Secorun takes a look at some of the key takeaways from the summit. #WEF2024 #Davos2024 #Davos #climate
