🌳🙌 'Investing in nature is essential, attractive and feasible.' That's the key message from our new insight report, 'Investing in Natural Capital: Innovations Supporting Much-Needed Financing for Nature', which we are thrilled to launch at #SDIM24 today. A collaboration between UpLink, the World Economic Forum’s Nature Action Agenda and 1t.org, in partnership with Mercuria, the report explores the trends, needs and opportunities in nature finance, showcasing ways in which new technology and business models are unlocking critical funding for #nature. Investing in natural capital is crucial to address the imbalance between nature's value and its destruction, while also creating new opportunities across the finance value chain. A nature-positive economy could generate over $10 trillion annually by 2030, and create 395 million high-quality jobs. ➡️ Read the full report to learn more: https://ow.ly/YqbQ50Tuc06 ARC Marine Barka Courageous Land Funga GroundUp Conservation Intrinsic Exchange Group Open Forest Protocol Pivotal Future terratai #naturalcapital #impactinvesting #investinginnature #innovation #startup #climateweek
