Climate change is likely to become the key driver of global biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation. At the same time, biodiversity and ecosystems are critical for climate regulation and contribute to climate change adaptation and mitigation. Such contributions include the removal of carbon from the atmosphere (carbon capture), regulation of water flows, and mitigation of extreme weather events. As such, we consider our longstanding commitment to biodiversity conservation to be an important component of our overall approach to addressing climate change and vice versa.
