Sesión 2 - Transformar las finanzas para la naturaleza

In the 13th edition of the report and provides the scientific evidence to back what nature has been demonstrating repeatedly: unsustainable human activity is pushing the planet’s natural systems to the edge.

This paper considers how financial authorities should react to environmental threats beyond climate change. These include biodiversity loss, water scarcity, ocean acidification, chemical pollution and zoonotic disease transmission, among others.

In a new published paper, Project Drawdown’s research team mapped all of the technologies and practices Project Drawdown identifies as global climate solutions to each of the SDGs and their respective targets.

This report aims to enable a better understanding of the business sectors1 and financial mechanisms at risk from the loss of biodiversity and lay the groundwork for biodi- versity-related target-setting by the finance sector.

This report will review existing initiatives regarding their analysis of nature-related impacts, risks, and opportunities for financial institutions (in particular for their investment activities into large corporates).
