I'm not sure it's a lack of interest so much as a shortage of good startups.
Here's YC's statement of interest https://www.ycombinator.com/blog/rfs-climatetech
They say they have funded over 100 of them.
Prometheus seems a good one https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/prometheus https://x.com/paulg/status/1385338452544217095
Prometheus has all the hallmarks of vaporware, over promised (self proclaimed "first electrofuel unicorn" lol) and under delivered. They've been at it for over 5 years and 120M dollars later they have nothing to really show.
120M could have bought a lot of rainforest or planted a lot of trees.
