Why should we invest in nature and biodiversity when supply chain costs are already skyhigh?

09:00 - 10:00
According to the WEF, more than half of the world’s gross domestic product, valued at ~$44 trillion, is dependent on nature but while more than 80 percent of companies have a strategy for emission reductions, just 5 percent have goals for biodiversity loss.  
 
So how do we stop talking about nature as a cost and start treating it like the insurance policy it really is? 
 
This session cuts to the chase to explore tangible ways businesses can integrate nature-positive strategies into supply chains not as a cost, but as a critical risk-mitigation and value-creation tool. We will focus on:  
 
  • The cost of inaction vs. investment- looking at the risks of not integrating nature and biodiversity.  
  • How do you convince decision-makers that corporate ecosystem conservation is essential to risk management and long-term profitability? 
  • How are companies embedding ecosystem health into core supply strategy?
