Shifting Trillions into Climate Solutions at the California Academy of Sciences

Climate funders and investors, join Sierra Club Foundation and Regenerative Social Finance (RSF) for a panel and reception at the California Academy of Sciences as part of SF Climate Week! Enjoy food and drinks with the gorgeous Cal Academy's terrace as a backdrop while we conduct a lively conversation on how to "Shift Trillions" into climate solutions.

Upon registration approval, guests will receive a code for discounted admission to the California Academy of Sciences during Climate Week.

Financial capital is often generated through extractive practices that damage natural and human resources, compromising the very systems on which we rely for our survival and well-being. Shifting Trillions is how we build something better, accelerating the stewardship and flow of capital to restore our climate and natural places, reduce inequalities, and create value for asset owners, communities, and ecosystems.

We’ll cover:
