Nature is fighting back. This is evident from the increasing frequency and severity of global forest fires, hurricanes, and devastating instances of flooding and torrential rainfalls - too often triggered by mass deforestation, improper agricultural practices and fossil fuel burning. Humanity is now faced with a small and rapidly closing window to address the twin climate-nature crises. It’s time we view nature not as a supplier, but as a business partner.

The TMT industry should be looking to:

• Align to upcoming nature regulations and frameworks
• Integrate nature into current climate strategies
• Asses what opportunities they could seize to become a leader in the delivery of nature-based offerings – benefits from a first-mover advantage

This report, created in collaboration with techUK, outlines the relationship between TMT companies. Here, we examine the opportunities and risks of an overreliance on nature and biodiversity, alongside recommendations on how your business should be responding.
