Environmental risk resilience

Your opportunity lies in your ability to adapt.

Dynamic and changing geopolitical, socio-economic and environmental conditions pose short- and long-term risks to organisations, making business resilience more critical than ever. Increasingly frequent and severe climatic changes and the degradation of ecosystems are no longer issues on the horizon but present-day risks to businesses. By taking a proactive approach to nature and climate risk assessment management, organisations can build adaptive capacity across value chains to ensure business continuity. At Nature Positive, our mission is to make sustainability second nature, and a sustainable business is one that is both operationally and financially resilient.

By evaluating climate, nature and social risks, we help businesses understand, report and act on impacts, risks and opportunities; meet market and stakeholder demands; and generate long-term value by positioning the business in readiness for a range of social and environmental challenges, including biodiversity and ecosystem degradation, climate change and regulatory demands.

Our proprietary risk assessment tools leverage geospatial analysis and integrate leading data sets from ENCORE, WWF and the UN Environment Programme to deliver insights across your operations, supply chain and downstream. The outputs of this analysis enable proactive management of supply chains, whether local, regional or global, by identifying possible risks related to stranded assets, human rights, reputational impacts and constraints on supply and sourcing across countries and commodities.

Our full suite of risk resilience services includes bespoke solutions that build on the initial risk assessment, turning data into action. These services include:

• data-driven strategic planning to future-proof operations against environmental and social risk
• readiness assessments and road maps for 1) mandatory sustainability reporting and 2) voluntary alignment with emerging standards (e.g., Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD)
• integrated transition planning to fill the missing link between setting and achieving net zero, nature positive and just transition commitments
• alignment of commercial and sustainability goals into one process, driving resource efficiency and momentum, as well as showing early wins.
