📚 Research we conducted with the @hlcchampions showed over 90% of @Forest500 companies with a net zero target won’t meet it because they are not doing enough on #deforestation.

We only have three years until 2025. Without ambitious #deforestation commitments and effective implementation, #NetZero will not be possible, 1.5 degrees will not be possible. We need more from the companies with the most influence on deforestation, and we need it now
Forest 500@Forest500

To reach #netzero, UN #HLEGReport says companies must end deforestation by 2025. Just 23% of the companies most exposed to deforestation risk had committed to do so by 2025. A third have no deforestation policy at all Read more: ow.ly/t9mG50LxYbi

The world spends > $1 trillion of public money on subsidies that harm biodiversity. To stop this, governments and businesses need to change. To do this, they need reliable data & guidance. Global Canopy provides both. #InvestInOurPlanet here: ow.ly/xLvP50INU2J

Despite the lack of perfect data, there is still enough data for financial institutions to get started - to set policies, to identify their exposure to #deforestation, and start engaging companies. More data is coming, but we need action now
EFI Governance@EfiGovernance

#SolHack "For some companies we see a lack of transparency about what their exposure to deforestation or to those commodities is (...) so we see a really big data gap in terms of a lack of reporting..." @ethomson184 of @Forest500 @GlobalCanopy
