Nature's Economic Future: Balancing solutions and growth in the UK

New economic research commissioned by the RSPB makes the financial case for closing the UK nature finance gap, quantifying both the cost of inaction and the opportunity of getting it right.
This interactive session for senior business, finance and policy professionals tests that evidence in practice:
Can the UK meet its nature and climate commitments alongside economic growth, within realistic budgets?
The answer, as a hands-on exercise reveals, depends on whether nature is integrated into economic and climate decision-making or siloed from it. Closes with an opportunity for further discussion of where investment opportunities already exist.
Speakers and panelists include:
Emily McKenzie, Technical Director, Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures
Dougie Peedle, Head of Nature Positive Economy, RSPB
Pippa Heylings, MP for South Cambridgeshire, Liberal Democrats
Wendy Walford, Head of Climate and Nature, Legal & General
Andy Griffiths, Global Head of Transformational Partnerships, Diageo
