Wir verbinden Menschen auf der ganzen Welt
zu gemeinsamem Handeln für Klimaschutz
Sei ein Pionier!
Starte mit uns einen neuen Weg zur Klimagerechtigkeit und mache mit!
Wir vereinen Menschen weltweit im Einsatz für Klimagerechtigkeit.
Unser gemeinsames Ziel ist es, Klimaneutralität und den Zugang zu sauberer Energie zu fördern. Deshalb rufen wir die Menschen auf, 1% ihres Einkommens zu investieren. Die gemeinsame Summe wird gerecht zwischen dem Globalen Norden und dem Globalen Süden in erneuerbare Energien verteilt, um dem Klimawandel entgegenzuwirken und den Planeten für zukünftige Generationen zu bewahren.
Unsere Projekte schaffen Arbeitsplätze und befreien die Menschen aus der Energiearmut in den vom Klimawandel am stärksten betroffenen Gebieten. Die teilnehmenden Bürger erhalten eine Dividende auf ihre Investitionen. Unsere Projekte sind der Beweis dafür, dass der Kampf gegen den Klimawandel für jeden möglich ist. Unabhängig von der Höhe ihres Einkommens.
Wo die Politik nicht schnell genug handelt, wollen wir neue Wege beschreiten – bisher in den Niederlanden, Deutschland, Ruanda und Südafrika.
Möchten Sie mitmachen?
Möchten Sie über aktuelle Projekte informiert werden?
Wir halten Sie gerne auf dem Laufenden.“
Das Team: Wir bringen breite und langjährige Erfahrung zusammen

“Überzeugt davon, dass der Klimaschutz internationales Handeln auf der Grundlage von Gerechtigkeit und Gleichheit erfordert, hat eine Gruppe von Energie- und Entwicklungsexperten, Kirchenführern und Studenten aus Deutschland, Indien, den Niederlanden, Ruanda, Südafrika und Tansania Diskussionen darüber begonnen, wie internationale Klimaschutzmaßnahmen von Bürgern weltweit im Jahr 2020 umgesetzt werden können.”
Darüber hinaus verfassten wir zwei Machbarkeitsstudien, die unterschiedliche Möglichkeiten der Nutzung erneuerbarer Energien in Ruanda, Tansania und Südafrika untersuchten. Darauf aufbauend gründeten wir den One Climate Fund Southern Africa und die One Climate Solar Homes Rwanda GbR.
Letztere setzte gemeinsam mit der Vereinigten Evangelischen Mission, der Presbyterianischen Kirche von Ruanda, der Anglikanischen Kirche von Ruanda und dem Interdiocesan Service für ländliche Entwicklung ein Pilotprojekt um, das 200 Familien in netzfernen Gebieten in Ruanda mit Solar-Home-Systemen versorgte.
Dies führte zu der Entscheidung, die „1 Climate International Cooperative U.A.“ nach niederländischem Recht zu gründen.
Die Philosophie und das Geschäftskonzept wurden im Wesentlichen aus den Erkenntnissen der Klimawissenschaft und aus den Erfahrungen abgeleitet, die die Gründer in den unten aufgeführten Organisationen gemacht hatten.

– One Climate Fund Southern Africa
