As 2015 draws to a close, there is a strong hope that the Paris Climate Summit could represent a turning point in the global fight against climate change. A transformation of global financial and energy systems is needed to make a low-carbon and climate-resilient global economy the ‘new normal’, and to support the implementation of the climate actions already proposed by more than 150 countries. The Global Landscape of Climate Finance 2015 presents the most comprehensive information available about which sources and financial instruments are driving investments , and how much climate finance is flowing globally. It aims to provide an updated picture on how, where, and from whom finance is flowing toward low-carbon and climate-resilient actions globally, and to improve understanding of how public and private sources of finance interact.
