Inspiring and igniting #regenerative mindsets and cultures 💭 The transition beyond traditional #sustainability goals requires a holistic view of humans, the economy, and the environment as interconnected systems that influence one another. Regenerative approaches may also shift how we view the scale, timeframes, and the human and non-human stakeholders of business activities. 🤝 At the #RegenerativeBusinessSummit on Thursday, we’re excited to be hearing from an expert panel on questions including:  💭What the last decade has taught us about what works in terms of changing public opinion?  💭How should policy and policymaking reflect regenerative goals?    💭How can businesses use their resources and footprint to reframe the narrative from sustainability to restoration, not only amongst direct stakeholders but across whole systems? Look forward to hearing from Rachael Orr, CEO, Climate Outreach; Philip T., Head of Futures, Defra; Charmian (Char) Love, Global Director of Advocacy, Natura &Co; and Trewin Restorick, Founder, Sizzle at the #RegenerativeBusinessSummit this week. It’s not too late to register! https://lnkd.in/eUJCVmDJ #RegenerativeBusiness #SustainableBusiness #RegenerativeFuture #RegenerativeEconomy #GreenEconomy #Biodiversity #ClimateLeadership #COP29

“Over half the world’s total GDP is moderately or highly dependent on nature and its services, with an estimated US$58 trillion exposed to nature-related risk. To make these numbers tangible, consider that 75 percent of global food crops rely on pollinators, 70 percent of cancer drugs are inspired by or based on nature, as well as traditional knowledge of Indigenous Peoples, and 72 percent of companies are highly dependent on at least one ecosystem service.” Climate, nature, and people are often viewed in silos - but the solutions that simultaneously address climate change, protect nature, and support communities, build truly resilient models that create lasting positive impacts. Read the below article from our Managing Director for Climate and Nature, Lara Birkes, for more insights on integrating climate and nature work and the benefits of doing so. https://lnkd.in/e_BnXkR8

💡 As we face the pressing challenge of climate change, it's clear that our traditional growth models are no longer sufficient. To ensure sustainability, we need to innovate and adopt new business models that emphasize environmental stewardship, societal well-being, human rights and financial resilience. This entails tackling challenges in innovative ways, enhancing efficiency, and making strategic investments in our future. It's crucial to transition from mere growth to responsible growth. Let's move forward together. #ClimateChange #Sustainability #Innovation #Responsibility

“System change is not about describing the complexity of the system, it’s about understanding the complexity so that you can find the leverage points.” This quote from James Honeyborne, who previewed his upcoming Netflix film “Our Oceans” at the Nature4Climate hub, resonated with me during Climate Week. When discussing the power of storytelling in sustainability, it is increasingly important to acknowledge that breaking down complexity doesn’t mean oversimplifying—it’s about making it accessible and impactful. For instance, linking ecosystem services to basic needs like water quality, food security, and climate regulation helps make the case for nature clearer. Whether companies value nature intrinsically or instrumentally, the focus must remain on a project-first approach, with finance integrating these values into our economic systems. In the complex landscape of the voluntary carbon market, finding the right stories to drive radical transformation is crucial. Many companies still struggle to navigate evolving regulations and directives, but the key question remains: how can we drive on-the-ground impact for people and the planet at scale? A big thank you to our friends and partners who made this week a success: Flowcarbon, BeZero Carbon, Nature4Climate, Ethic, HowGood, The Landbanking Group, Rubicon Carbon, IETA, and more. Special thanks to Michael Bertelsen, Frederik Aagaard, Simon Haldrup, and a huge shoutout to Erica Johnson for leading the way for Agreena throughout Climate Week. 🌍💚

Climate Action: Stronger Than Politics The push for a sustainable planet goes beyond any administration. Climate solutions are now deeply woven into our economy. Over the past decade, a coalition of businesses, investors, local governments, and citizens has shown that sustainability is here to stay. Responsible capitalism is driving this shift, as companies rethink operations and investors prioritize environmental goals. This is the future of business. Political winds may shift, but we're proving we can — and will — create the world we deserve.

Biodiversity loss and climate change are no longer distant issues–they are urgent crises threatening our ecosystems and economies. Leading companies are stepping beyond their environmental footprints to drive action. This is more than corporate responsibility; it is about catalyzing systems change. Businesses are uniquely positioned to combat these issues by transforming supply chains, empowering stakeholders, and integrating nature-related risks into financial decision-making. Together, we can build a regenerative economy. 🌎 Learn more about our services here: https://lnkd.in/e7c_AJX9 #DunyaAnalytics #Biodiversity #ClimateAction

Reflecting a week later on #NYClimateWeek, I’m taking a moment to reflect on what it truly means for our collective future. Last week, industry leaders, policymakers, and activists came together not just to discuss the climate crisis, but to take action. What stood out the most was the sense of urgency and collaboration—it’s clear that addressing climate change is not just the responsibility of one sector, but of every sector. From new commitments to net-zero strategies, to breakthroughs in green technology, and the powerful voices of youth activists, this week has reinforced a key message: climate action is everyone’s business. It’s not just about saving the planet; it’s about building a resilient, equitable future for all. As I reflect, a few takeaways stand out: - Innovation is Critical: From renewable energy solutions to circular economy models, innovation and AI are driving the shift to sustainable practices. - Collaboration Over Competition: Partnerships across sectors are yielding tangible results. It’s inspiring to see competitors becoming allies for a shared cause. Last week was a powerful reminder that while we’ve made progress, there’s much more to do. We need to go beyond pledges and focus on implementation. Let’s keep the momentum going—our planet, and future generations, are depending on it. #Sustainability #ClimateAction #NetZero #ESG

Climate action should no longer be just CSR, a passion project, or pro bono work. It demands immense research, knowledge, execution, and relentless effort to drive meaningful change.
