Taking in this data point: "There is no country that currently invests more in nature than it spends on destroying it." Turning this info around would require providing incentives to invest in nature. What can we do to spur such investment?
There is no country that currently invests more in nature than it spends on destroying it. Changing that calculus and promoting nature-positive incentives can go a long way to closing the #biodiversity financing gap and is a key part of achieving international environmental goals. The Global Environment Facility will hold a full-day conference on October 27, in the Green Zone of UN Biodiversity's COP16 Colombia, on the potential of positive incentives, reforms of harmful subsidies, and policy alignment to achieve Target 18 of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (#KMGBF). The event is co-hosted with the Government of Colombia, UN Biodiversity's Secretariat, Conservation International, Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, The ICCF Group, The Nature Conservancy, The World Bank, and World Economic Forum. 🔗 Join us in Cali and online: https://lnkd.in/eSsgyp7V #COP16Colombia | #GEFatCOP16Colombia
