Energy and food systems must work together to achieve 1.5°C by stopping deforestation and halving methane emissions

Transforming the energy system alone will not be sufficient.

Unfortunately, many financial institutions have been ignoring the problems of deforestation and methane emissions for far too long. 61% of financial institutions covered by Global Canopy’s latest Forest 500 survey do not have any policies to tackle deforestation in their lending or investment portfolios. With only seven years left to achieve these targets, action must be taken now.

Our Recent Reports

Avoiding Aquafailure

The farmed seafood industry will miss consumer demand by around a fifth by 2050 and drive further biodiversity loss – unless it changes. Diversifying farmed seafood production towards regenerative aquaculture can close a predicted 50 million tonnes supply gap while tackling biodiversity risks. Investors and lenders need to consider the material risks of the status quo and provide finance to help transition companies as high concentration leaves the industry vulnerable to biodiversity risks, leading to higher costs, more regulation and capped production.
