The Business Case for Investing in Soil Health
Soil health also forms a key part of our action on climate change. Healthy soils can help us withstand the effects of climate change that we are locked into, whilst avoiding soil and land degradation and increasing soil carbon stores could help us deliver our commitments to reduce emissions and limit global warming to 2 ⁰C.
The purpose of this publication is to:
Nature-based solutions to the hazards and impacts of climate change
A new animation explaining the fundamental importance of nature-based solutions to the hazards and impacts of climate change.
It is the first of a series of animations aimed at general audiences to communicate why protecting nature is very often our best line of defence against harmful environmental change.
Nature-Based Solutions
The idea of ‘nature-based solutions’ (NBS) is now being used to reframe policy debates on biodiversity conservation, climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies, and the sustainable use of natural resources, among other issues. While interesting and potentially useful for those debates, it is a concept that still needs to be clearly defined; its use is not confined to discussions about ecosystem services and natural capital.
