Outrage + Optimism

271. Getting Nature on the Balance Sheet


Listen Later

This week, Paul and Tom are joined by Tony Goldner, from the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures.

Tony helps make sense of what happened at the recent Biodiversity COP in Colombia and discusses the many ways that nature is starting to appear on business’ and regulators’ agendas. Companies are waking up to the fact that their resilience depends on the resilience of nature.

Many companies are in the process of developing and setting long-term transition plans to net-zero. Tony explains that as biodiversity and nature-loss risks mount, businesses need to also consider that nature-based dependencies, risks, and mitigations should be put in place.
