Nature-based Solutions for corporate climate targets

Nature-based Solutions (NBS) are activities undertaken to protect, sustainably manage and restore natural and modified ecosystems to simultaneously benefit people and nature. NBS are critical to addressing challenges such as climate change, food security, water security, disaster risk, human health, and social and economic development.

This publication describes the avenues available to include NBS in corporate climate strategies in accordance with the definition, principles and the Global NBS Standard. When implemented correctly, NBS can contribute to climate mitigation and adaptation, while offering significant benefits for biodiversity and human well-being.
