🌍🌱🤩 Nature Positive is gaining momentum. 🤩🌱🌍 2️⃣ articles from the World Economic Forum show how the global wine industry 🍷 and household and personal care manufacturers 🧴can support #NaturePositive outcomes. 🔵 Regenerative viticulture as a nature-positive growing strategy: https://lnkd.in/gP3D9kNZ 🔵 Consumer goods producers can support nature positive: https://lnkd.in/dATvGrtt Every sector has a role to play in reaching global targets like Nature Positive by 2030. However, greenwashing and greenhushing can limit opportunities for collaboration – says Akanksha Khatri, Head of Nature and Biodiversity at the World Economic Forum. While half of the world’s biggest companies have net zero targets, few fully understand the impacts and dependencies of their activities on nature. The Nature Positive Initiative is made up of 2️⃣7️⃣ organisations to drive awareness and action for a nature-positive world. Frameworks like those from the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) and the Science Based Targets Network can support businesses in making positive steps for our natural world, and for ourselves. 🟡 Find out how TNFD are supporting disclosure of nature-related risks https://tnfd.global/ 🟡 See SBTN’s enabling materials and technical advice to take action https://lnkd.in/dJa9rBh
Nature Positive Initiative
Non-profit Organizations
Nature is in crisis, placing human and planetary health at risk. Together we can secure a nature-positive world by 2030.
About us
We need more nature at the end of the decade, not less! ‘Nature positive’ is a global goal defined as ‘halt and reverse nature loss by 2030 on a 2020 baseline, and achieve full recovery by 2050’. Put simply, it means ensuring more nature in the world in 2030 than in 2020 and continued recovery after that. The Nature Positive Initiative (NPI) is a coalition of conservation organizations, standard-setting organizations, institutes, and business and finance coalitions which have come together to drive alignment around use of the term ‘nature positive’ and support broader, longer-term efforts to deliver nature-positive outcomes. Core work includes preserving the integrity of ‘nature positive’ as a measurable 2030 global goal for nature for business, government, and other stakeholders, and providing the tools and guidance necessary to allow all to contribute. The initiative also advocates for the full implementation of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework by governments and other stakeholders. The NPI coordinates a diverse Nature Positive Forum, which is open for all relevant institutions and organizations to join and support and implement the Nature Positive global goal for nature.

👏🌱Positive news from the BBC who are committing to both #NetZero and #NaturePositive. 🌱👏 They join many others in the process of making #ScienceBasedTargets for Nature through the Science Based Targets Network, and aligning to the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) framework to assess, report and act on their impact on our environment. An announcement last week revealed that the BBC's Net Zero targets have been verified by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), but the BBC plans to also reduce their environmental impact and work towards nature-positive outcomes. According to their sustainability strategy, they are investigating methodologies to calculate our biodiversity footprint in order to measure our biodiversity net gain performance alongside commitments to reduce emissions and educate and inspire on climate and nature. 🟢 Read the update: https://lnkd.in/enT9zUQB 🟢 Find out more about the global nature positive goal: https://lnkd.in/e3My8m-Y

The 5️⃣ high-level recommendations and 2️⃣0️⃣ detailed policy asks for governments from the Business for Nature coalition come at an opportune moment in the run up to #COP16 in Colombia this October. The policy recommendations call on governments to urgently adopt policies to accelerate the action needed on #Nature: 🌎 Make sure business and finance protect and restore nature 🌎 Ensure natural resources are used and managed sustainably to reduce negative environmental impacts 🌎 Value and embed nature in decision-making and disclosure 🌎 Align all financial flows to a transition to a nature-positive, net-zero and equitable economy 🌎 Adopt/strengthen ambitious global agreements to address key nature loss challenges Businesses and financial institutions are uniting and calling on governments to provide the regulatory certainty they need to transform their operations and supply chains 🌱 The world has an opportunity to build a thriving, #NaturePositive, #NetZero and equitable economy. Businesses cannot address the challenge of nature and biodiversity loss alone and voluntary business action is not enough. The Nature Positive Initiative stands behind all action to halt and reverse nature loss by 2030. We support the appeal to governments for immediate leadership to strengthen policies, incentives and legislation that will drive the necessary business action to halt and reverse #NatureLoss this decade. 🔗 Read the policy recommendations: https://lnkd.in/e7ZP58hD #NaturePositive

🌿 Very Nature Positive News: Today the EU adopted the Nature Restoration Law, a monumental step for Europe’s biodiversity. This groundbreaking legislation is not only a crucial victory for our environment but also a significant milestone on our journey towards a #NaturePositive world by 2030. The Nature Restoration Law sets ambitious targets for restoring ecosystems, protecting wildlife, and enhancing the resilience of our natural habitats. It reflects a collective commitment to safeguarding the biodiversity that underpins our economies, well-being, and the planet’s health. Fantastic to see that despite backlash, we are turning the tide on biodiversity loss and working towards a sustainable and flourishing future for all. Let’s continue to champion nature and ensure that our actions today create a better tomorrow #GenerationRestoration #NatureDeal #BiodiversityPlan #RestorationLaw www.naturepositive.org
