Integrating biodiversity into a business context

The health of our planet is in crisis: global warming, extreme weather events, land degradation, worsening air quality, plastics in the oceans, and a sharp decline in species diversity are becoming more widespread and visible.

Since half of our global economy is classified as moderately or highly dependent on nature, large companies are also more directly affected. This creates natural risks for businesses and creates opportunities. However, most companies are not yet taking measures commensurate with the risks they face.

This whitepaper produced by Systemic with the support of Metabolic argues that for companies to act, we must help them finance risk and monetize opportunities. Although the issue of nature is complex (it is multidimensional, site-specific, and often hidden in supply chains), progressive leaders should start researching this issue, building future resilience, and staying ahead of investors, regulators, and competition.

Guided by emerging frameworks, notably the TNFD, SBTN and CSRD, the paper shows how companies can, step-by-step, understand key nature-related impacts and dependencies, discuss the strategic and financial merits and disadvantages of different types of action, and decide on the strategic and financial advantages and disadvantages of different types of action. Way forward. The approach he proposes uses these frameworks as a starting point, but it also allows companies to connect the topic of "nature" with conversations about core strategy, risk management, and financial performance.
