They work with leaders and innovators across business, finance and government to accelerate action for a sustainable future.	https://www.cisl.cam.ac.uk/
Center for Climate Finance and Investment, Imperial College Business School	The center focus on how capital markets are responding to global climate change. Their research covers five workstreams: climate risk ccenarios and stress testing, nature, clean energy investing; climate finance markets and instruments; and adaptation and resilience.	https://www.imperial.ac.uk/business-school/faculty-research/research-centres/centre-climate-finance-investment/research/
Grantham Institute, Imperial College London	The Grantham Institute is Imperial College London's hub for climate change and the environment. They seek to understand our planetary environment, how the human-environment interacts with the natural world, and how the translation of research to inform policy and innovation can help create a sustainable, resilient, healthy future for the planet.	https://www.imperial.ac.uk/grantham/
ESG Initiative, The Wharton School	The School brings together stakeholders from academia, government, communities, and the private sector to conduct academically rigorous, practically relevant research on topics such as climate change, renewable energy, air and water pollution, waste disposal, biodiversity, and deforestation. Our core research areas include how climate risk impacts business strategy and financial markets, how environmental policies and markets transform the energy and transportation sectors across countries at different stages of economic development, and climate and environmental ethics.	https://esg.wharton.upenn.edu/centers-labs/climate-center/climate-risk-solutions/
Institute for Climate, Energy, and Disaster Solutions, Australia National University (ANU)	Its goal is to advance innovative solutions to address climate change, energy system transitions and disasters. We facilitate integrated approaches to research, teaching and policy, industry and community engagement across disciplines. We also lead the ANU Below Zero Initiative in research, teaching and engagement whose goal is to reduce the University's greenhouse gas emissions to below zero.	https://iceds.anu.edu.au
Climateworks Center, Monash University	The Climateworks mission is to accelerate action to achieve net zero emissions within Australia, Southeast Asia and the Pacific, aligned with the global goal of limiting warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. It works across four physical systems (food, land, and ocean, industry, cities, and energy) of the economy that produce emissions, and three systems (sustainable corporate, sustainable economy, and sustainable finance) that enable emissions reduction.	https://www.climateworkscentre.org
Center for Climate and Resilience Research (CR)2	Its aim is to generate knowledge about climate science and resilience from an interdisciplinary perspective and study how climate change impacts Chilean ecosystems and society.	https://www.cr2.cl/eng/
