<p>Welcome to the Episode 1 of the Climate Money Podcast. Follow the climate headlines — and the climate money — with me, Susan Su. 

One of the central ideas behind my work as a climate investor, and that of many others like me, is that solving climate change is the value creation opportunity of a lifetime. 

In this episode, we look at:

- The UAE&#39;s new $30B climate fund and what it means for climate investing
- A big development for carbon sequestration in... Louisiana?
- India&#39;s solar and wind story, the good the bad and the tricky
- First Solar&#39;s $700M revenue bump from tax credits courtesy of the IRA</p>

Climate Money Ep.2: Kenya's Carbon Cash Cow, Solyndra 2.0 and Yikes, JBS

Climate Money covers the financing side of climate change -- where the money is flowing, where it isn't, and why it matters. Join us as we cover climate headlines and founders and investors involved in the business of fighting climate change. 

Season 2 explores a central observation: climate tech financing has reached ~$1.8 trillion annually, but the debt-to-equity ratio is roughly 15:1. This massive tilt toward debt signals sector maturation (bankable assets, proven revenue models, institutional comfort) while simultaneously exposing dangerous gaps that we'll dive into on the show.
