The Need for Action

According to the World Economic Forum, “44 trillion of economic value generation – more than half of the world’s total GDP – is moderately or highly dependent on nature and its services and is therefore exposed to nature loss.” The UN Convention on Biological Diversity’s Global Biodiversity Framework, envisions that “by 2050, biodiversity is valued, conserved, restored and wisely used, maintaining ecosystem services, sustaining a healthy planet, and delivering benefits essential for all people.” As a result, businesses need to understand their impacts on nature, and start to take appropriate action to avoid, reduce, restore, regenerate, and transform these impacts.
