Why should we invest in nature and biodiversity when supply chain costs are already skyhigh?
According to WEF, more than half of the world’s GDP, valued at ~$44 trillion, is dependent on nature. bBut while more than 80% of companies have a strategy for emissions reduction, just 5% have goals for biodiversity loss.
So how do we stop treating nature as an ‘externality’ and instead recognise its value as a critical asset?
This session cuts to the chase to explore how business can integrate nature-resilience into supply chains. Not as an optional cost. But as a critical risk-mitigation and value-creation tool. We’ll focus on:
- The cost of inaction: What are the risks of turning a blind eye in the short, medium and long term?
- The return on investment: What tangible results have we seen that can demonstrate impact?
- Convincing the c-suite: How to redefine the business case for nature around risk management, resilience and long-term success
