Asia-Pacific’s drive to combat climate change is often held back by stubborn infrastructure bottlenecks. Outdated systems, from how we cool our buildings to how we power our farms, create inefficiencies and emissions that slow climate action. The good news is a wave of APAC startups is innovating to break these bottlenecks.
From rice paddies in Vietnam to fermentation tanks in New South Wales, a growing number of Asia-Pacific startups are turning microbes into powerful climate tools.
Across Asia, a new wave of climate innovation is being led by women, from civil engineers working to cut construction emissions to biotech founders transforming methane into animal feed.
