There is a decline in investments in climate-tech start-ups according to data from PwC's recently published State of Climate Tech Report. And this has been happening the second year in a row. Not too surprising, given the ongoing challenging broad market conditions. On the slightly positive note, climate-tech investments have outperformed the broader market by achieving a less pronounced decline (40.5% for climate-tech versus 50.2% for the broader venture and private equity investment year-over-year). Another piece of positive news is on the increasing share of climate tech investments in total start-up investments. While these are reasons for hope, we are far from where we need to be given the urgency to address the climate crisis.
