Addressing the crisis in the natural world requires an estimated $1.2 trillion in annual private sector investment. Institutions that act next can gain business advantages.
Our Approach to Nature-Positive Strategy and Nature-Based Solutions
Nature and climate are inextricably linked; loss of ecological biodiversity exacerbates climate change. And nature-based solutions will play a critical role in capturing and reducing atmospheric carbon and enhancing adaptation and resilience. BCG helps companies understand the environmental impact of business and build comprehensive environmental strategies that align business priorities with planetary boundaries. This includes designing a holistic nature-positive strategy that addresses businesses’ contribution to deforestation, plastic pollution, and more:
1. Define the Nature-Positive Strategy and Ambition
We help companies assess their footprint when it comes to impacts on nature, set targets, and build a roadmap to integrate nature activities with their climate plans.
2. Make the Core Sustainable
We work with companies to build nature-positive supply chains and sustainable operations and, when possible, deploy nature-based solutions for biodiversity restoration and the regeneration of natural ecosystems.
3. Driving New Sustainable Growth
A nature-positive strategy is not only a means to reduce risk but also a way to build new businesses. We help clients seize those opportunities, including via new green ventures and deep tech. We also work with them to adopt new sustainable business models, including circularity, to produce more with fewer natural resources.
4. Enabling the Transformation
We work with companies to build the foundation for a successful nature-positive transformation, including creating the right operating model, governance, data strategy, and capabilities.
Our Clients’ Success in Nature-Based Solutions
We worked with a global pharmaceutical company to develop a comprehensive nature-positive strategy that goes beyond decarbonization, helping the client conduct an end-to-end assessment of the value chain, identifying the impacts on ecological biodiversity, and leveraging synergies between climate and nature efforts.
We worked with two partner organizations to build out a dashboard that allows companies to assess their impact throughout the full water cycle, including rivers and oceans, and helped develop a nature-positive strategy and framework that identifies the most impactful issues by industry to enable companies to measure and take action on the most material issues.
