When farmers protect the soil, they protect life itself. Regenerative agriculture is a pathway to healthier land, stronger communities, and a sustainable future for our planet.

Lead the World Beyond Fossil Fuels

Brazil is promising to protect the Amazon while allowing new oil drilling there. Brazil's leaders must choose: help the world move away from oil, or get left behind.

Exponential Business Playbook 5.0 launching today!
The fastest economic transition in history is happening and businesses that act now can turn climate action into growth, resilience and competitive advantage.

Launching today, the Exponential Business Playbook 5.0 provides a clear, practical framework for companies to move from targets to real-world impact. This edition introduces an updated five‑pillar Exponential Framework: Operations, Value chain, Climate & nature solutions, plus the new Finance & investment and Policy & narrative pillars – evolving the previous four‑pillar structure. It also strengthens guidance on carbon removals and climate solutions and places a sharper emphasis on competitiveness: how climate action drives growth, cuts costs and builds resilience.

Backed by leading scientists and organisations representing over 1 trillion dollars in annual revenue and 2 million employees, the Playbook translates the latest climate science into actionable steps for all businesses, large and small.

COP30 Belem, where we have been and where we are heading - Climate Analytics

What Has the Paris Agreement Done for Us? — 22 ways it is changing the 21st century for the better shows how, since 2015, the Paris Agreement has bent the global temperature curve downward. Under current policies, the world is headed for ~2.7°C this century which is disastrous for ecosystems, economies, and vulnerable communities. Ahead of COP30, a major gap remains between pledges and Paris' 1.5°C limit. That's not a flaw in the Agreement's design; it's a failure of political leadership.

Rescuing 1.5°C: new evidence on highest possible ambition to deliver the Paris Agreement shows 1.5°C can still be rescued if we act at the highest possible ambition starting now. This analysis updates IPCC AR6 scenarios to reflect today's higher starting emissions and sets out what is needed to limit overshoot above 1.5ºC, and to get temperatures back well below 1.5ºC before 2100. Under this new scenario, global warming would peak near ~1.7°C and fall to ~1.2°C by 2100, CO₂ would reach net zero before 2050 with all GHGs in the 2060s, electrification would supply nearly two-thirds of energy by mid-century, a rapid fossil-fuel phaseout would be paired with strong methane cuts, and carbon removal would scale quickly.

Real zero is within reach explores the technical feasibility and economic benefits of real zero (the complete elimination of fossil fuels by replacing them with zero-carbon alternatives, rather than compensating for them with offsets, carbon dioxide removal or carbon capture and storage). Our analysis demonstrates that reaching real zero is achievable in many sectors and identifies the economic benefits of eliminating fossil fuels. The report Real zero: delivering a fossil free future shows that pathways exist to eliminate fossil fuels in key global sectors like power, shipping, and transport, making a real zero future technically feasible. The report, Real zero: an opportunity, not a cost, examines the economic feasibility of real zero using three in-depth case studies of critical industries – the transition to battery electric trucks in Europe, green steel in Japan and green fertiliser in India. It shows that a move to zero-carbon alternatives is a direct investment in competitiveness and resilience.

Partners’ relationship rules

✅ Vulnerability builds trust.
When leaders facilitate open and empathetic dialogue, donors feel more at ease. They share more. They feel heard. And that's where real connection starts.

✅ Drop the "professional bubble wrap."
Your donors aren't moved by a flawless façade. They're moved by values-driven, human-to-human conversations.

✅ Direct mail works best when it feels personal.
"The more mail looks personal and looks like I sent it to you, the better it performs all the time," John says. One-to-one, conversational, emotional messaging always wins.

✅ Emotion fuels action.
Joy, anger, hope, sadness—whatever the emotion, it's the feeling that prompts people to give, engage, and stay connected.
My favorite line from John?

[We're being emotional. We're connecting with each other as humans. That's how we create engagement with donors.]

International Women's Day

On this International Women’s Day, we stand in solidarity with the resilient women of Pakistan, whose courage amidst adversity inspires nations. Yet, we cannot ignore the systemic injustices they face: unjust detentions without trial, denial of healthcare and education, climate-induced suffering, and the horrors of honor killings and trafficking.

To the government and society: Uphold human rights, ensure fair trials, invest in equitable healthcare and education, and combat climate impacts disproportionately harming women. Protect them from violence and exploitation—justice delayed is justice denied.

Together, let’s commit to a Pakistan where every woman thrives with dignity, equality, and freedom. Her rights are non-negotiable; her future, our collective responsibility.

🌸✊

The sad demise of His Highness Prince Karim Aga Khan IV is a profound loss for the global Ismaili Muslim community and all who have benefited from his visionary leadership and humanitarian efforts. As the 49th hereditary Imam of the Ismaili Muslims, he dedicated his life to the betterment of society, with a particular focus on uplifting marginalized communities, including those residing in mountainous regions.

Through the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN), he spearheaded initiatives that have significantly improved healthcare, education, and economic development in over 30 countries. His commitment to human dignity and social justice has left an indelible mark on countless lives.

In Pakistan, his contributions are especially noteworthy. The AKDN's projects in the mountainous areas of Gilgit-Baltistan and Chitral have transformed these regions, enhancing the quality of life for their inhabitants. His efforts in preserving cultural heritage, promoting sustainable development, and fostering pluralism have been instrumental in the nation's progress.

To honor his memory and express condolences to his followers in Pakistan and around the world, one can acknowledge his unparalleled dedication to humanitarian causes and his transformative impact on global development. Sharing messages that highlight his life's work and the positive changes he brought to underserved communities can offer solace to those mourning his loss.

As we reflect on his legacy, we are reminded of the profound difference one individual can make in the world. His Highness Prince Karim Aga Khan IV's life was a testament to compassion, leadership, and an unwavering commitment to improving the human condition.

May his soul rest in peace, and may his legacy continue to inspire future generations.
