Analysis from Planet Tracker finds diversifying farmed seafood production can close supply gap while tackling biodiversity risks.

Planet Tracker’s interactive dashboard allows you to discover how concentrated seafood production is within a country, and how concentrated seafood production is by species, covering more than 200 countries and more than 600 species from 1950 to 2020. The dashboard also allows a comparison between aquaculture production and wild-catch fishing.

To have any hope of limiting climate heating to 1.50C: stopping deforestation and cutting methane emissions by 45% before 2030 are essential to meet our interlinked climate, nature and development goals and significantly reduce the food system’s GhG footprint. 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.

Some of the world’s biggest textile companies are failing to tie executive pay to environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance.

The textiles industry is out of fashion with failure to link executive pay with sustainability performance.

If you’re looking for a job where compensation can be linked to your impact, consider becoming Head of Traceability (HoT), especially at a nature-dependent company.
