The London-based Climate Bonds Initiative today announced that Graciela Chichilnisky, Professor of Mathematics and Economics and Columbia University in New York, would be joining their international Advisory Panel.
Prof Chichilnisky was the architect of the Kyoto Protocol carbon market, is author of the recent book "Saving Kyoto", advises several UN organizations and is working with the US Air Force on pioneering a new approach for measuring, anticipating and managing catastrophic risks, sometimes called "Black Swans".
Prof Chichilnisky will join Climate Change Capital's James Cameron, HSBC's Nick Robins, Citibank's Sean Hanafin and others in advising the Climate Bonds Initiative on solutions to the challenge of mobilising finance to fund a rapid global transition to a low-carbon economy.
