The intersection of business and nature capital
Building a nature-positive future
The link between nature and climate change represents an opportunity for companies to assess their environmental footprint, and to accelerate the transition to a net-zero, nature-positive world.
Waking up to the cost of nature loss
Nature and climate change are closely linked. Climate change is one driver of nature loss, and nature loss continues to drive climate change and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Nature-based Solutions (NbS), such as restoration and conservation, are driving many GHG mitigation opportunities that could help companies, and the world, reach emissions reduction targets by 2030, generate significant cost savings, and reduce the intensity of climate hazards.
Assessing Nature-based Solutions for business growth
Implementing NbS can strategically position companies to address a spectrum of nature-related risks—ranging from physical and transition risks to systemic threats—while simultaneously allowing the company to unlock growth opportunities.
Incorporating nature into core strategy can allow businesses to discover untapped value. Some of the main benefits may include:
