Bush Heritage Australia invites you to join them for a thought-provoking networking breakfast, featuring inspiring female leaders providing their insights and guidance on nature-based risks and opportunities, including the upcoming nature-related financial disclosures.

Nature loss poses risks for business now and in the future but tackling nature loss also presents considerable opportunities.

While climate change and net zero has been the headline act for some time, biodiversity and ecosystem health is rapidly taking centre stage. More than half of the world’s economic output is moderately or highly dependent on nature and there is growing recognition in the finance and business sector of the need to move beyond climate considerations and address nature-related concerns.

With mandatory nature-related disclosures now on the horizon, it’s imperative for business to act early, understand the complexities involved and take advantage of the many synergies between solutions to nature loss and the climate crisis.

Defining how companies can assess, prioritise, measure, address and track their impacts and dependencies on natural ecosystems is a significant step in the right direction for creating strong biodiversity.
