Die Internetrevolution wurde ab 1995 durch Wagniskapital finanziert – nun brauchen wir Kapital für die Dekarbonisierung unserer Wirtschaft.

The internet revolution was unfolding from 1995 onwards, financed by venture capital. Now we need venture capital to finance the decarbonisation of our economy.

If the decarbonisation of the economy is to succeed, it will require profound technological innovation. The global economy is therefore facing a profound disruption similar to that caused by computers and digitalisation over the past 50 years – but this time, it will have to happen even faster. Venture capital is here to finance this green revolution.

Which policy would you implement to help us achieve climate goals?

For our partner Craig Douglas, it’s a big question with a very simple answer.

💰 We must create a realistic carbon price. At a price point of €100 euros or less, we already have scalable technologies that will ensure we hit our climate goals - helping to ensure a regenerative and decarbonised world.

To those who think that "the West" is still uncatchably ahead: Hello from #Warsaw, the capital of a country that has been on the move for more than 30 years. First, some personal impressions and then a few facts: 🇵🇱

I travelled by train from Berlin. The train was late in Germany, and there was a delay of about half an hour at the border. I couldn't work because I didn't have internet. As soon as I got to Poland, I had 5G almost all the time and could work and make calls without interference. In addition, the train in Poland made up for the delay from Germany, so I arrived on time. 🚄

I've been here since yesterday, and when I compare the city with Berlin, I notice that people here dress at least as cool, there are lots of bike lanes and far fewer homeless people on the streets. Of course, this is only a brief and very personal impression, so a fact check:

According to the CIA World Fact Book, Poland's Gini coefficient is 30.2, Germany's 31.7 and the UK's 35.1 - so income and wealth seem to be more equally distributed in Poland than in Germany or the UK. 💶

While GDP per capita (current US$) in 1990 was 1,731 (PL), 19,095 (UK) and 22,304 (DE), in 2021 it was 18,000 (PL), 46,510 (UK) and 51,203 (DE). In short, incomes have increased more than tenfold in Poland and slightly more than doubled in the UK and DE. 📈

GDP growth in Poland remains well above that of Western European countries (in 2022 it was 5.1% vs. 4.1 (UK) and 1.9 (DE)). If we extrapolate all these figures into the future, Poland will have reached the GDP per capita that we have in the UK or DE in about ten years. 📊

The unemployment rate in Poland is also below that of Germany or the UK, at 2.6%. 👨🏼‍💻

I admit: I could also have picked out figures that show how much catch-up potential still lies in Poland and other CEE countries. I am sure that these countries will use their potential. They are hungry countries whose time is just beginning. And I, as a German with Croatian roots, am very happy about that. 🇭🇷

Was viele bei der Klimakrise falsch verstehen und was uns die Lage in Frankreich gerade so brutal vor Augen führt: Wenn der Staat uns heute nicht vorschreibt, wie wir heizen dürfen, wird er uns morgen vorschreiben müssen, wann wir den Wasserhahn aufdrehen dürfen und wann nicht.

Wie @BachmannRudi halte ich einen echten, kosteninternalisierenden CO2 Preis bestehend aus striktem Mengendeckel plus Klimabonus für die effizienteste und schnellste Art, Deutschland und Europa bei der Grünen Transformation wieder zurück an die Spitze zu führen. Wird Zeit.
