undefined

CEOs are increasingly recognising the importance of nature for business, people and the planet. This report features seven case studies from companies that have begun transforming their businesses towards a nature-positive future.

Global nature ambitions are driving businesses to urgently address nature-related risks and opportunities. The top four global risks over the next decade, including extreme weather and ecosystem collapse, are related to nature. Nature loss harms communities, accelerates climate change and threatens natural resources essential to businesses. At the same time, nature-positive solutions create a tremendous opportunity, potentially unlocking up to $10.1 trillion in annual revenue opportunities and cost savings by 2030.

These case studies showcase companies that have proactively addressed their impacts and dependencies on nature. By transforming their business models, companies can enhance their resilience and seize opportunities in a nature-positive and net-zero world.
