Climate Risk Podcast

Why Nature Belongs in Corporate Thinking


Listen Later

Hear from Robin Millington, CEO of Planet Tracker, as we discuss how and why businesses should be thinking about their dependencies and impacts on nature.

Sustainability is a complex topic, and for a long time, climate has been at the heart of discussion. Other challenges like pollution and biodiversity loss have often been sidelined. Recently however, following the work of the TNFD and others, these issues have risen up the corporate agenda, within the wider context of our impact and dependency on nature.

Throughout her career, this guest has highlighted the importance of integrating nature into mainstream business. In this episode, we'll explore:

  • The urgent need to manage climate and nature risks holistically;
  • How our failure to value natural capital correctly is pressurizing the global food system and other key sectors;
  • And the role that financial markets have in creating a nature-positive future.
