Climate Equity

Safeguarding our planet for future generations

A sustainable and equitable world

At Climate Equity, we believe sustainability and equity are mutually supporting – carbon abatement is necessary for global equity, and global equity is necessary for environmental sustainability

Climate Equity Inc. was established in Australia in 2008. Our mission is to address inequality locally and globally, including refugee support in Melbourne, Australia and projects which abate carbon and provide STEM education for disadvantaged youth in Bangladesh.

Clean Cooking Solutions

By replacing conventional wood-fueled stoves with modern induction cooktops, we are improving household air quality, reducing carbon emissions, and promoting sustainable energy solutions. Our project aligns with global efforts to mitigate climate change while enhancing the well-being of communities.

STEM Project

The Bangladesh STEM Project empowers underprivileged students by providing hands-on STEM education, including programming and technology skills. Our goal is to improve their thinking capabilities and equip them with essential knowledge to thrive in the modern world. Through interactive learning, we inspire young minds to explore science, engineering, and innovation for a better future.

Refugee Support

Working with local volunteers, we support refugee families with accommodation, food, medical care, shopping, government support, driving tuition, education, friendship and cultural awareness – helping them move from surviving to thriving in their adopted home.

We also support disadvantaged youth to play their favourite sport, by funding uniforms and registration fees.

Recent project by Climate Equity Inc.

Clean cooking can reduce pollution from burning wood or coal in traditional stoves and protect human health.

Worldwide, billions of people cook with polluting fuels and technologies, including solid fuel and biomass such as wood, charcoal, animal dung, crop residues, and coal. These fuels release plumes of smoke and soot with significant health impacts that contribute to millions of premature deaths each year.

Traditional cooking practices also produce greenhouse gas emissions. These emissions stem from two sources. First, unsustainable harvesting of fuel drives forest degradation and prevents reforestation. Second, the combustion of biomass fuels such as wood, charcoal, and dung releases significant amounts of carbon dioxide, methane, and black carbon directly into the atmosphere. Together, these impacts contribute to climate change and undermine global efforts to reduce emissions.

Comments from people we work with

We are grateful for Climate Equity’s ongoing support helping disadvantaged youth with sport uniforms and registrations. They are an integral partner in our ongoing work with these communities

Climate Equity was indispensable in setting up our charity. Geoff’s industry experience, knowledge of government processes and all round professionalism made an otherwise fraught process easy

Coming out of Afghanistan in a desperate situation, we were fortunate to connect with a group of incredible volunteers who helped us settle in Melbourne. They dedicated their time to understanding everyone’s needs—finding high schools for teenagers, language courses for elders, driving lessons, and other essentials. The fact that we are thriving today is a direct result of their hard work. We will always be grateful for their kindness, commitment, and determination. Their support made a world of difference in our journey.

Arriving in a new country comes with many changes, but the warmth and generosity we experienced made the transition a truly special one. From the very first day, we were surrounded by kindness, guided with care, and welcomed in a way that made us feel at home. Beyond the practical aspects of settling in, what touched us the most was the genuine sense of connection. We were embraced by a community introducing us to new places, sharing experiences, and making us feel like we belonged. Their generosity, thoughtfulness and dedication left a lasting impact on us. For all of this, we are deeply grateful.
