Foreword

The world has changed dramatically since the first “State of Finance for Nature” report was published in 2021. War and extreme weather have caused devastation and immeasurable human suffering, and economic recession looms with inflation increasing rapidly. Food, energy and supply chain security have shot to the top of the political agenda. A growing number of people, including in developed countries, must choose between food on the table or paying energy bills. Meanwhile, natural assets continue to deteriorate due to chronic undervaluation of natural systems and systemic unsustainable production and consumption.
