Even if we phase out all oil, coal & gas by 2050, we still fail on holding the well-below 2°C limit, if we do not get nature back within safe planetary boundaries. We need a carbon law for Nature, and exponential roadmaps for nature climate solutions

Exciting to see an IUU risk assessment tool for seafood companies on the horizon! This is very much needed as the Seafood Stewardship Index results show 2/3 of companies failed to demonstrate having such a tool. https://t.co/REjlVoJq0a @FriendsofOcean @FishWiseOrg

#transparency in action - Tony Chocolonely reveals 1700 cases of child labour in their 2020-21 report. I hope this inspires other companies, because change starts with aknowledging the problem.

#WhenCompaniesValuePeople they respect human rights, provide decent work & act ethically! @SDGBenchmarks latest report shows that this is a far cry from the reality: 99% of companies fail to demonstrate the basics of socially responsible business conduct! https://t.co/1GISFxkwiZ
