Enabling conservation and 生物多样性 of our oceans
Since we recognise the value of 生物多样性, we consider the many benefits that the natural environment provides and our responsibility to protect and restore nature.
Biodiversity represents the variety of all life on earth; vital to the functioning of our ecosystems, it provides a wealth of benefits to ensure our planet remains habitable. Protecting biological diversity is crucial to the survival of plant and animal species, genetic diversity and natural ecosystems which ensure clean water and air and contribute to food security and human health.
The impact to business a loss of 生物多样性 and natural capital presents can include the quality and quantity of raw materials, increased costs of commodity supply chains and the introduction of unmanaged risks in supply chain, affecting future cash flow and operational continuity.
Loss of 生物多样性 and habitat can also result in disproportional harm to those most vulnerable in society, presenting not just the risk of environmental damage, 但也有社会不平等的挑战.
