Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework

Four years ago the international community adopted the Kunming‑Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, a pathway to living in harmony with nature by 2050. It aims to shift from targets to implementation and requires investment in natural capital, resilience and prosperity. The framework underpins COP17’s focus on accelerating progress. The World Bank estimates up to half of global GDP depends on biodiversity and ecosystem services; in the euro area 72 % of firms rely on at least one ecosystem service and 75 % of corporate lending supports such companies. Depletion of natural capital already raises costs, reduces productivity and disrupts supply chains. United Nations REPORTS Global Biodiversity Framework· Entity summary generated by Graphiti
