The impact of climate change poses not only environmental risk but investment risk.
This year, we’ve taken steps globally to mitigate those risks and help the world transition to net zero including:
The BlackRock Foundation is giving $100 million to the Breakthrough Energy Catalyst program to fund innovation in clean energy and combat climate change.
We’re building partnerships with companies that can accelerate the transition.
We’re helping developing countries build green energy infrastructure, and putting our clients’ money to work in renewable power sources.
The transition to a net zero world is the shared responsibility of every citizen, corporation and government. We all have a role to play.

We believe that the transition to a net zero world is the shared responsibility of every citizen, corporation, and government. Learn about the steps we’re taking to mitigate the risks of climate change and help the world transition to net zero.
In January 2021, we committed to supporting the goal of net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 or sooner – and announced a number of steps to help our clients navigate the transition. Explore our commitments, and read the latest letter from BlackRock Chairman and CEO, Larry Fink.
Every great idea,
Every breakthrough,
Started with a question
Someone asked the why
Poked holes in the way things are,
To see what they could become.
And right now, the world is facing some big questions.
About how to push forward without leaving people behind.
How to break with the past and create a better future.
So on behalf of more and more people,
BlackRock is asking bigger questions.
Bolder questions.
Questions that challenge convention
And give rise to new thinking.
Questions like:
How can valuing workers more lead to greater company value?
How can the economy go green, without putting communities in the red?
Because the bigger questions we ask, the bigger actions we can take.
Helping us tackle the biggest question of them all:
How can we all prosper?
BlackRock.
