The increasing pressure on #nature directly threathens the continuity of businesses and their value chains. Embedding #sustainability into #strategy requires awareness to assess impacts and dependencies as well as to identify the nature related #risks and #opportunities. I have just completed the newly updated “Climate and Nature in the Boardroom “ micro-learning course by the Climate Governance Initiative and I have received my #certificate. This free, interactive, 30-minute course offers a concise, practical introduction to the interconnected challenges of climate change and biodiversity loss — and how to integrate them into effective governance and decision-making. The course covers: *The latest climate science and nature-related risks *Governance frameworks that embed climate and nature considerations *Financial risks and opportunities linked to climate and biodiversity *Developing robust climate and nature transition plans *Engaging stakeholders and enhancing transparency *A small time investment — with a big impact on how we lead. Take a 30-minute pause and join this initiative. Boards Impact Forum Liselotte Hägertz Engstam 🌏♦️Fernanda Torre #Biodiversity #Sustainability #Climategovernance #Netzero #boardleadership
