Climate Advisers provides strategic communications support to Nature4Climate in an effort to enhance the role of natural climate solutions in the fight against climate change. In addition to supporting N4C's hugely popular Weekly Brief, our work focuses on efforts to build trust in the ability of these solutions to not only reach scale, but also ensure integrity and deliver benefits for climate, people and biodiversity. This involves convening, coordinating and aligning across N4C's network, developing shared messaging based on rigorous research, identifying case studies, leading media strategy and crafting impactful thought leadership.

Climate Advisers helped with the public relations for the launch and growth of the LEAF Coalition, generating a wide range of high-profile coverage, as well as supporting the development of relevant thought leadership for the program. In 2021, this included features in The New York Times, The Washington Post and Newsweek.

Climate Finance Risks and Opportunities

Working alongside investors, private sector leaders, policymakers and other stakeholders we have helped develop and publish cutting-edge research on the ways climate change impacts the global financial system. Our team has turned these insights into compelling narratives for our Orbitas, Chain Reaction Research, and other initiatives.

Food and Agriculture

Our specialist food systems communications expertise goes hand in hand with Climate Advisers' food and agriculture practice area to raise ambition and coordinate action at the international level, to drive food system methane mitigation, to advance the protein transition and to advocate for an ambitious but realistic global N₂O mitigation goal.

Carbon Markets

Our team is intimately involved in a range of campaigns to communicate the progress toward the next evolution of the voluntary carbon market (VCM 2.0), and have helped install key arguments into the debate, such as the narrative that more attention should be spent on corporate climate laggards rather than leaders.
