Now #LondonClimateActionWeek has come to a close, we reflect on the key issues and insights shared across the events we co-hosted with our NCS Alliance members and partners. Our sessions underscored the central role of natural climate solutions in climate change mitigation. We focused on issues relevant for businesses planning to procure high-integrity NCS credits, highlighting the importance of robust and transparent carbon markets. The discussions underscored several critical themes: 📥Making the #BusinessCase for Carbon Credits: It’s clear that to drive corporate investment in #carboncredits, we must articulate a strong business case. Companies need to see the financial and strategic value in supporting #NaturalClimateSolutions (NCS). 👩🏫 Beyond #Carbon: The value of NCS extends far beyond carbon sequestration. These solutions contribute to #nature, #health, #gender equity, and other social benefits. However, it’s essential to recognize and mitigate risks to Indigenous People and local communities and ensure equitable outcomes. 🏞#Protecting and #Restoring Nature: Effective climate action requires a dual focus on protecting existing natural landscapes and restoring degraded ones. This holistic approach ensures the sustainability and resilience of our ecosystems. The events highlighted the urgent need for public-private collaboration, significant financial commitments, and integrated climate and nature strategies to scale carbon markets and include nature-based solutions in corporate carbon credit portfolios. Our Calls to Action: - 🤝#Collaborate: Join forces across sectors to amplify our impact. - 👥Lean In: Engage deeply with the complexities and opportunities in the carbon market. - 🚀Action Now: Commit to immediate and meaningful actions to integrate high-integrity NCS into your climate strategies.

🌍📢 THE URGENT NEED TO FINANCE NATURAL CLIMATE SOLUTIONS #NaturalClimateSolutions plays a vital role in mitigating #climatechange and offers significant #social, #environmental, and #biodiversity benefits. The. Time. To. Act. Is. Now. Together with IETA, our new paper highlights four key realities that underpin this urgency: 1. NCS offers higher mitigation potential compared to other abatement options. 2. Nature loss threatens economic growth, risking billions of dollars of assets within the next 5-10 years. 3. The effectiveness of nature as a mitigation tool decreases after 2030 due to ecosystem tipping points. 4. NCS addresses climate and economic risks while benefiting people, communities, and biodiversity. Carbon markets are essential for driving private sector investments into NCS at the necessary scale. Given the urgency of the nature and climate crises, we must act now. 🔗 Read the full paper here: https://lnkd.in/ejH8E9ys #ClimateAction #NaturalClimateSolutions #NCSAlliance #Sustainability #IETA #InvestInNature
