Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

Venture investment has been developed around companies that have predictable stages and timelines for growth. Raise your Seed when you’re at X level, move onto Series A at Y. For climate tech, these rules simply don’t apply. They have long R&D periods and often require a fair amount of capital before they can flip the monetization switch.
