The twin crises of climate change and biodiversity loss are inextricably linked. A recent report by the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change finds that addressing the synergies between mitigating biodiversity loss and climate change offers the opportunity to maximize environmental and socio-economic benefits. 

In this Webinar, we will hear from CEO entrepreneurs whose cutting-edge ventures use advanced technology to forecast and monitor carbon capture, biodiversity loss and expose other positive attributes across nature-based solutions. Join us to learn about how their work and for an open discussion on how a global pool of entrepreneurs are helping to build the next generation of high-integrity climate markets and scaled-up action worldwide.
