💧🌍 Updated Water Infrastructure Criteria open for public consultation – share your feedback
The Climate Bonds Initiative invites stakeholders, experts, and market participants to share feedback on the updated Water Infrastructure Criteria under the Climate Bonds Standard, open for consultation from 13 March to 8 April 2026.
As climate change intensifies floods, droughts, and water scarcity worldwide, resilient water infrastructure is becoming essential to safeguard communities, ecosystems, and economic stability. The revised Criteria strengthen how adaptation and resilience are integrated into water investments, helping ensure capital is directed towards infrastructure that can withstand future climate conditions.
Key updates include the operationalisation of the Climate Bonds Resilience Taxonomy (CBRT) within the water sector, mandatory climate vulnerability assessments for all assets, enhanced safeguards against maladaptation, and clearer expectations around emissions and methane risks in wastewater treatment.
💧 Water infrastructure remains under-represented in labelled bond markets despite its critical role in climate resilience. These updates aim to strengthen investor confidence and support the growth of resilient water investment pipelines.
➡️ Your input will help ensure the Criteria remain practical, robust, and aligned with evolving climate risks.
🗓️ Consultation open: 13 March – 8 April 2026
☑️ Submit your feedback: Public consultation: https://eu1.hubs.ly/H0t0w630

🌍 Expanding global verification capacity for sustainable finance
We’re pleased to announce that BUREAU VERITAS has expanded its role as an Approved Verifier under the Climate Bonds Standard, with new offices in China, Japan, India and France now added to the Climate Bonds Verifiers Directory.
This expansion marks an important step in strengthening regional verification capacity across key markets in Asia and Europe, supporting issuers in demonstrating alignment with science-based criteria and reinforcing investor confidence in labelled debt instruments.
Building on its long-standing role, including its presence in Brazil since 2020, Bureau Veritas continues to play a critical role in advancing credible, high-integrity sustainable finance globally.
💬 “Expanding trusted, science-based verification coverage is essential to supporting issuers worldwide and maintaining the integrity of the Climate Bonds Certification framework.”

🌿 What does really mean and why is it shaping ?
In Brazil, mutirão is an Indigenous-rooted practice of collective mobilisation, where communities come together to achieve what no one can accomplish alone.
At COP30, this concept has become a guiding principle: a global mutirão that brings governments, Indigenous peoples, social movements, private sector, academia and civil society into a shared effort.
💬 In this new video, Mariana Caminha, Head of Communications at Climate Bonds, meets Carlos Nobre, one of Brazil’s most respected for an exclusive interview. He reflects on the global journey since the Paris Agreement and the scale of mobilisation required to avoid irreversible tipping points.
His warning is stark ➡️ If global temperature rise reaches 2°C, all coral reefs will disappear, triggering a cascade of ecosystem collapse.
This is the moment to move from isolated efforts to a global mutirão capable of reshaping our climate future.
