In our latest video, Siobhan Archer, Global Stewardship Lead, discusses the importance of biodiversity data and why understanding biodiversity is critical to support the planet’s health and resilience.
Biodiversity is an incredibly complex topic, encompassing the multitude of species, ecosystems and genetic diversity that form the intricate web of life. Understanding these complexities is crucial if companies are to ensure sustainable business practices and address some of the environmental challenges that we face.
The use of advanced technologies like geospatial data and satellite imagery has significantly enhanced the ability to measure and understand biodiversity impacts, providing valuable insights for investors and companies alike. By integrating this data, investors can understand both the risks that biodiversity has on a company, as well as a company’s impacts on nature, from its immediate surroundings to its supply chain.
Not only does this enable investors to incorporate biodiversity data into their investment analysis; it also enables exciting stewardship opportunities by facilitating active dialogue between investors and companies. Empowered by new datasets, companies will be able to set and adhere to robust biodiversity targets, while investors can measure and track progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals.
