What does it actually look like to build resilience at the intersection of climate and nature?
Can climate risks be assessed in isolation from nature risks?
There is a growing focus on climate risk work this year, and often time and budget priorities shift towards this area and compliance with disclosure standards. Nature-related risks are therefore pushed to a later stage, as they are not seen as the most pressing priority.
However, considering nature risks alongside climate risk can offer both strategic and cost-saving opportunities. The Sustainable Finance Roadmap published by Treasury in June 2024 highlights the importance of responding to nature-related risks and opportunities, as well as the progress being made to support nature-related work. Multiple other market signals also indicate a growing focus on nature and the potential move towards nature-related disclosures in the future.
Given that climate and nature risk work have significant overlaps, it is beneficial from both a cost and efficiency perspective to consider them in parallel. But beyond the compliance element, what are the other advantages of understanding nature risks in conjunction with climate risk?
This webinar series will explore the evolving landscape of nature and climate, and how focusing on both — including a double materiality lens — can position your strategy as more resilient while also unlocking additional strategic opportunities.
