1.  


A Certified Climate Loan is a green debt loan that is certified by the Climate Bonds Standard Board as meeting the requirements of the Climate Bonds Standard.
One thousand billion (1,000,000,000,000 or 10<sup>12</sup>).


The term “Bond” is used in the Climate Bonds Standard to describe the debt instrument being considered for certification whether it is structured as a bond, a loan or some other form of debt instrument.
For example EUR 100 trillion = EUR 100,000,000,000,000.




2. ''Green finance.''
2.  


Any similar loan, not necessarily certified in this way.
Historically in the UK and some other countries, "trillion" used to refer mathematically to 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 (or 1018).  


This historical usage never became established in finance, and is now for practical purposes defunct.
