Investors keen for green and clean
As the world continues to experience the effects of climate change, cleantech investment has gained traction. Cleantech, or clean technology, includes products and services which aim to lessen negative environmental impacts and improve sustainability. Examples of cleantech include services that recycle and repurpose old batteries, or services that provide sustainable alternatives to traditional, less environmentally friendly materials. Australian investors are excited about more climate and clean technology in the future.
