Nature
Sustainable decisiveness:
from focusing on CO2 to a broad perspective on nature
Nature is our lifeblood. After all, over 55 percent of our global economy depends on nature. It provides the air we breathe, the water we drink, it ensures the fertility of the soil, and it is a source of inspiration for technology. However, the significant loss of biodiversity poses a threat with major consequences for both people and businesses. For organizations that want to be resilient, this means taking a sustainable step forward by embedding the importance of nature in their business strategy. Together, we make your actions count.

Five steps to anchoring nature in your company strategy
Map out what nature means for your company, what the current strategy is and how the playing field currently looks like. From regulations to a competitive analysis, it should not be missing when embedding nature in strategy. Next, understanding and managing your company's impacts and dependencies on nature is critical for ensuring long-term sustainability and risk management. All the information ultimately leads to developing a nature strategy as well as a transition plan. This is where PwC’s transformation experts clearly play an invaluable role. Supporting the development of tailor-made plans means you are not limited to environmental plans and ambitions, instead making a genuine transition to a nature-positive future.
