Episode 73: Understanding Nature Finance with Darren Mckenzie from Global Canopy

Nature forms the foundation of the world’s economy.  Nature-based solutions focused on climate mitigation contribute about USD 170 billion worth of ecosystem services to the global economy. However, the dependencies of the nature of the global economy and the related risks and opportunities to the economy have not received much attention from corporations, investors, and lenders.

In this episode, I interviewed Darren Mckenzie from Global Canopy, a data-driven not-for-profit that targets the market forces destroying nature. Intending to tackle the drivers of deforestation, Global Canopy is working towards improving the supply chain transparency of corporates while improving company sustainability and  ESG Metrics. Furthermore, Global Canopy is working towards developing high-quality data to tackle nature-related risks and opportunities. In this episode, Darren elaborates on the work of Global Canopy and other concepts of nature finance.
