How Could We?

The climate crisis is a complex global issue threatening the way we live and its impacts are being felt more more severely around the world. We wonder: how could we have let this happen? People increasingly recognise that gradual change is not enough. Join us for a series of conversations about building hope, curiosity – and excitement – for a just and desirable future. We’ll hear from some remarkable people who are putting truly transformative and innovative solutions into practice. We’ll ask them: "How could we achieve a climate-resilient, inclusive world for everybody?"

    S7E3 - How Could We? Make COP29 matter - Key challenges and what’s at stake

    In this new episode of How Could We?, Anne-Sophie Garrigou interviews Megan Rowling, editor of Climate Home News, to discuss the main objectives and challenges of COP29. With years of experience covering international climate negotiations, Megan unpacks what’s at stake at this year's conference in Azerbaijan. From the urgent need for a new climate finance goal to support developing countries, to the implications of a potential U.S. withdrawal from the Paris Agreement, this conversation highlights key challenges and anticipated outcomes. Megan explains why, despite criticisms, the COP process remains crucial in mitigating global climate risks, preventing what could otherwise be “runaway climate change.” She shares insights on the obstacles to securing sufficient climate finance, especially in light of geopolitical tensions and pressures on both wealthy and emerging economies to contribute. They also discuss topics expected to dominate media headlines, like the global transition from fossil fuels and the evolving dynamics in climate finance governance. This episode sheds light on the pressing issues shaping COP29 and why the decisions made here will affect climate action worldwide.

    S7E2 - How Could We? Manage the tension between agriculture, biodiversity conservation, and fair value chains?

    In this episode of How Could We?, Daniel Zimmer from ⁠EIT Climate-KIC⁠ joins us just after returning from COP16, the UN’s Biodiversity Summit hosted by Colombia. In this conversation, we explore the challenges faced by indigenous communities, who manage 80% of the world’s biodiversity but are increasingly threatened by deforestation and land degradation. Daniel shares insights on the pressing need for finance—estimated at $700 billion by 2030—and the critical importance of ensuring that this funding reaches local levels, where it can have a meaningful impact. We also discuss the tension between agricultural expansion - driven by rising demand for meat and land and biodiversity conservation. Additionally, we explore the role of value chains and the necessity of reconnecting local producers with the benefits derived from their resources. This episode shows the connection between finance, local communities, agricultural practices, and biodiversity, highlighting the need for integrated approaches to tackle these challenges effectively.

    In this episode of How Could We?, Sebastian Bustamente from EIT Climate-KIC joins us from Cali, Colombia, where COP16, the UN’s Biodiversity Summit, is underway. This episode is all about biodiversity. We discuss the goals of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework and the challenges of turning those ambitious commitments into implementation. Sebastián shares insights into his work with Climate-KIC's fundraising task force and his experience at COP16, where intense discussions on conservation, finance mobilisation, and community involvement are shaping the biodiversity landscape.

    S6E2 - How Could We? Support cities and regions to build climate resilience

    In this special episode recorded at #ClimateWeekNYC, we sit down with Eleni Myrivili, the first Chief Heat Officer in Europe and a board member of the EU Adaptation Mission. Myrivili shares her expertise on how cities and regions can better adapt to the climate crisis, especially extreme heat. She also explains the importance of Pathways2Resilience, a project led by EIT Climate-KIC to support 100 regions in Europe to build a path to climate resilience. Together, we explore how is heat impacting our systems, the challenges European cities and regions face in implementing climate adaptation plans, the importance of multi-level governance and the need for coordinated financing and capacity-building efforts.

    S6E1 - How Could We? Unlock the missing trillions to drive climate action

    In this special episode recorded during #ClimateWeekNYC, we sit down with Eva Gladek, CEO of Metabolic, one of the 15 organisations of the Systemic Climate Action Collaborative co-founded by EIT Climate-KIC. Eva talks about the climate finance gap, often called the "Missing Trillions." She explains that trillions of dollars are needed annually to support fundamental climate mitigation and adaptation efforts—like retrofitting buildings, decarbonising mobility systems, and regenerating land—yet only a small portion of the necessary funds are being mobilised. Together, we explore why this money isn’t flowing, where the bottlenecks lie, and what has been happening to prevent these essential investments from reaching their intended targets. If you’re interested in supporting Metabolic, visit their crowdfunding campaign page. Climate-KIC is also opening its Community membership to individuals.

    S5E4 - How Could We? Encourage cities and industries to collaborate to accelerate decarbonisation

    Welcome to the final episode of season 5 of How Could We?. This series explored cities' transformation and discussed why cities play such a key role in tackling climate change. This week, our guests are Diane Holdorf, Executive Vice President of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development. Our CEO, Kirsten Dunlop, also returns as a guest for the second time this season. In this episode, we discuss how cities and industries should collaborate more effectively to reach climate neutrality more quickly, why co-investment between the private and public sector is key, and why it is important for cities to better signal their demand for the materials needed to accelerate decarbonisation. -- This episode was presented by⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Anne-Sophie Garrigou⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and produced by⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Bárbara Mendes-Jorge⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. Listen to our previous episodes - Season 1 focused on Sustainable Forestry and Land Use, Season 2 explored the New European Bauhaus initiative, in Season 3 we explored three themes related to the climate emergency: Climate Narratives, Confusion & Crisis and Radical Collaboration, while in Season 4 we delved into the transformative potential of development funding. ⁠⁠EIT Climate-KIC⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ is Europe’s leading climate innovation initiative, aiming to accelerate the transition to a zero-carbon, climate-resilient society by supporting innovative solutions helping society mitigate and adapt to climate change.  We want to hear from you!
