CDP says fewer than 1 in 10 businesses are assessing their dependencies on nature (2024). This makes businesses vulnerable as they can't identify and mitigate the associated financial risks. We help #travel and #tourism businesses understand their dependencies on nature as well as their impacts with the Natour Impact assessment tool. Discover how it can support your business here: https://lnkd.in/etr6nRUw tool #impactassessment #naturepositivetourism #dependencies
