Respondents in Luxembourg ranked climate change second only to the rising cost of living among the challenges facing their country. More than four in five of them agree that investing in climate adaptation now is necessary to avoid higher costs in the long run, according to the annual Climate Survey commissioned by the European Investment Bank (EIB).
The European Investment Bank (EIB) has passed the €100 billion mark in total Climate Awareness Bonds (CAB) and Sustainability Awareness Bonds (SAB) issuance since producing the world’s first green bond in 2007. Today, the EIB celebrated this milestone at the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, the world’s reference exchange for sustainable bonds.
The European Investment Bank Group (EIB Group), made up of the European Investment Bank (EIB) and the European Investment Fund (EIF), has launched the Women Climate Leaders Network in response to the urgent challenge of advancing the green transition and building climate resilience. Prominent women leaders from the private sector across all 27 EU Member States are coming together under this initiative to accelerate action on climate change, with 40 members of the network meeting for the first time over two days at the EIB Group headquarters in Luxembourg.
