newcomers discover that most funding and opportunities actually focus on longtermism (especially biosecurity and AI)
Another comment mentions GiveWell (moving $200M/​year), but I want to also flag that Founders Pledge just announced receiving a $50M donation to their climate fund, operating at $100M+ scale. Giving Green received $10M last year, and estimated the same donor may actually have given $17 million more [to recommended climate change orgs]
This is smaller than GiveWell (for now at least) but more than what OpenPhil donates to biosecurity (~$35M/​year). For context here are some numbers from OpenPhil’s grants database (sheet)
There seems to be a lot of money in EA Enviromentalism
