Mission & Goals
Cascade Climate is a philanthropy-backed climate not-for-profit organization focused on addressing aspects of the climate challenge that are underrepresented and underresourced in the current global climate strategy. These challenges-–which have potential for significant impact on the climate and our way of life—are unlikely to be resolved through decarbonization alone. For these emerging climate solutions, Cascade helps remove the biggest bottlenecks to progress by coordinating ambitious cross-sector initiatives, building tools and infrastructure to unlock cycles of learning-by-doing, and resourcing high-leverage R&D and policy work. Our initial focus is on enhanced rock weathering as a promising carbon removal and agronomic solution. Cascade Climate’s exclusive aim is to address climate change by working with policymakers and other stakeholders to accelerate progress in emerging climate solutions.
