About Climate Transition Capital Acquisition 1 We are not on course to maintaining a 1.5°C temperature increase, with potential catastrophic outcomes for billions.  Between now and 2050, over $100 trillion must be invested in decarbonising the global economy in order to maintain this goal and we believe only public capital markets are large enough to deliver this. Climate Transition Capital Acquisition 1 is one of the first European SPACs to focus on the climate transition. By accelerating access to public growth capital, CTCA1 believes that climate SPACs could become a vital tool for mobilising the capital towards net zero.
