Climate change and the decarbonising of economies presents unprecedented physical and transitional risks, as well as significant opportunities in moving to net-zero, more climate resilient outcomes. We work with governments, corporates and financial institutions, to understand and manage these risks and build long term resilience for economies and businesses. 

Our expertise and focus spans seven key sectors of the economy – food, fibre and agriculture, energy and infrastructure, investment and financial services, health, transport and logistics, and nature based solutions. 

Our advisory services include:

• Transition and decarbonisation business strategies, including corporate finance 
• Structuring innovative capital market and investment opportunities
• Climate and nature risk assessment and disclosure, including TCFD and TNFD
• Board and executive leadership
• Stakeholder engagement
• Establishing and embedding ESG frameworks
• Industry coalition building and advocacy
• Carbon markets and other nature-based solutions
• Policy, legal and regulatory advice

Supporting our strategic advice, Pollination Law provides specialist legal advice on climate risk, investment, carbon markets and other nature-based solutions.

We believe that combining strategy, law and investment with policy is key to accelerating the transition to net zero. We work with governments and policy makers to develop law and governance systems that unlock the billions in public climate funding.

Our unmatched expert team advising on decarbonisation, combined with asset management expertise, means we are well placed to identify and develop novel project investment opportunities and partnerships that range from renewable energy to carbon investments to technology solutions.  

Through this, we will bridge the gap between “advisory” and “asset management”, between “idea” and “investible proposition” to unlock new decarbonisation projects and businesses. Our project investment initiatives are often in partnership with our clients or other stakeholders, and our core focus is on delivering both impact and returns.  

Challenges related to climate change cut across all sectors of the economy and transcend borders, and we have the legal and policy capabilities to provide effective solutions.

Our legal practice is comprised of global leaders in climate
law with over 20 years’ of experience. It is led in APAC by Martijn Wilder AM, rated the Star Individual by Chambers Global, and in the North America by Marisa Martin and Richard Saines ONM, both recognized as climate leaders by Chambers USA and Chambers Global.

Integrity is at the core of our work in environmental markets, and we seek to ensure that market activity values nature and accelerates global ambition to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement.

We provide advice on carbon-related investments, carbon markets (compliance and voluntary), climate policy frameworks (including Article 6 of the Paris Agreement) and nature-based climate solutions.

Our clients include entities engaged in environmental markets from a range of perspectives, including investors, financial institutions, multilateral development banks, technology providers, market intermediaries, NGOs and project developers.

Our legal service includes:

• Transactional support, including for carbon credit deals in voluntary and compliance markets
• Due diligence for carbon investments
• Law and policy advice, including related to REDD+ and Article 6 of the Paris Agreement
