Helen Mountford’s ClimateWorks blog (Feb 11, 2025) is included because it frames philanthropy’s urgent role in the decisive decade: bridging leadership gaps from geopolitical shifts, catalyzing trust and finance, and scaling proven solutions (electric mobility, super-efficient cooling, renewable power) through patient, risk-tolerant capital and collaborative giving. The piece cites concrete examples and metrics (Drive Electric’s Leapfrogging Partnership, foundation climate mitigation funding of $4.8B in 2023) and recommends practical philanthropic actions — multi-year flexible support for grantees, capacity strengthening in low‑ and middle‑income countries, and integrated approaches linking climate to health and development — directly supporting the book’s Part 2 argument about purposeful investment strategies that mobilize capital, de‑risk innovation, and build coalitions to accelerate climate solutions.
