M AKING IT HAPPEN : T HE FINANCING CHALLENGE Critical to reconcile equity and efficiency Requires massive scaling up: Costs: some $200-275 Bn in 2030 Financing: up to $550 bn in associated mitigation finance Can be done: Costs = 0.4% of high-income country GDP to 2100 Financing = 3% of current global investments But requires all options available

Leverage private finance: Better information on climate trends and risks Investment climate conducive to low carbon investments Limited potential for public–private partnerships?
