Thank you @JustinWorland for reporting on this and echoing the economic value of nature after our discussion at the @MilkenInstitute Conference last week. More than half of the global economy is highly or moderately dependent on nature. If we lose nature, we lose everything.
Protecting nature delivers economic dividends—and can be advanced by a range of financial solutions https://t.co/5r2pGPw5Yu
