@WWFLeadMarkets @WWF_DG @hm @wwf_media @climateWWF @NatureDeal @wef @samputtdelpino @annaalmberg @BfNCoalition @WMBtweets @wbcsd Good to see companies like @hm talking about the journey to increase action on climate and nature at https://t.co/UOSEiRmQVP backed up by calls for governments at #COP26 to put ambitious policy in place. We need all of society efforts for a 1.5'C future where nature is recovering

The financial sector is heavily regulated because of risk. But the biggest risk may be not doing enough on climate and nature. Eric Soubeiran of @Unilever at @BfNCoalition event at #COP26

"With 2.5 billion people using @Unilever products we have a fantastic opportunity and a real responsibility for sustainability" Eric Soubeiran at @BfNCoalition event at #COP26. Case study here https://t.co/ZMYueKyCmJ

[Jaco Du Toit @JacoDuToitCT]

@BfNCoalition
and @WMBtweets launches compilation of case studies on companies taking action for nature and climate. A long way to go yet, but examples of learning and improving that provide hope https://t.co/ZMYueKyCmJ

@EvaZabey1 we need the default decisions of business and political leaders to be sustainable - in line with a net-zero, nature positive, equitable future.
@BfNCoalition at #COP26

[Jaco Du Toit @JacoDuToitCT]

@EvaZabey1 we need to work on solutions for nature and climate in context to solve integrated challenges - e.g addressing deforestation and ensuring indigenous people have rights to forests in their traditional land. @BfNCoalition event #COP26

[Jaco Du Toit @JacoDuToitCT]

We're seeing many investors and companies being part of the awakening on climate change... Now we also need to recognise the opportunity and need to protect and restore nature @RasmusValanko at @BfNCoalition event #COP26

[Jaco Du Toit @JacoDuToitCT]

Good to hear Jennie Granstrom of @hm emphasizing the need for companies to reduce raw materials used, to source what they need sustainably and for broad collaboration to achieve #naturepositiveby2030

The @Europarl_EN call for an EU law on #deforestation is good news - globally, the EU is responsible for over 10% of forest destruction, driven by consumption of #commodities like meat, dairy, soy for animal feed, palm oil, coffee and cacao. #Together4Forests

[WWF Markets @WWFLeadMarkets]

Many #companies are already taking action for #nature and making operations and supply chains greener - now governments need to provide #policies that allow them to do more.
