2022 Nature Benchmark

Measuring the world’s most influential companies on their efforts to protect our environment and its biodiversity

The Nature Benchmark assesses close to 400 companies across 8 industries, with the aspiration to increase to another 600 companies in the course of 2023. The benchmark provides publicly available, evidence-based insights into where the world’s most influential companies stand on their contributions to a nature-positive future.

The benchmark tracks and measures how companies are reducing their negative impacts on nature, and contributing to the protection and restoration of ecosystems, aligned with the goals of the Global Biodiversity Framework

Five key findings

When companies are held accountable by society, they have the power to improve. Surprisingly, some of the best performers of the Nature Benchmark include companies that have been under public scrutiny in the past. This demonstrates that positive, systemic transformation is possible when companies make concerted efforts to improve on their environmental performance. Notably, almost all industries in scope of the benchmark are represented among the top performers. This proves that following environmental best-practices is not something that can only be accomplished by companies in specific sectors: every company has its part to play. Nevertheless, much work remains to be done, as evidenced by the fact that 97% of companies have yet to commit to a nature-positive trajectory by 2030.

Key finding

A nature-positive future demands that companies look beyond climate goals

The first step for a company to contribute to a nature-positive economy is to understand how its value chain and business model relate with nature. Yet only 5% of companies have carried out a science-based assessment looking at how their operations and business model have an impact on nature and biodiversity. In contrast, 50% of companies have set targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Companies should therefore expand their efforts beyond climate and the urgent first action is to carry out an assessment of their nature impacts and dependencies. With several tools soon to be published, companies will be further guided and held accountable, on their path towards a nature-positive future.

Key finding

Companies can and must take direct action to halt biodiversity loss

With the alarming rate at which biodiversity is declining globally, the private sector can and must urgently take impactful actions. Companies can tackle biodiversity loss by committing to avoid ecosystem conversion, for example by reducing deforestation or protecting wetlands. However, less than 5% of companies assessed currently have this in place. Companies should also adopt a science-based management plan for the species they exploit, but currently only a handful of companies do so. Similarly, on pollution, companies must increase their efforts to curb air and water pollutants, as well as reducing plastic use and waste, but only a third of companies currently show relevant efforts on these.

Key finding

Companies’ transparency on biodiversity hotspots and endangered species is low

Measuring biodiversity and how it is impacted requires long-term monitoring efforts. While 50% of companies disclose the location of their operational sites, only 14% clearly indicate whether these are located in or near areas of high ecological value, making it difficult to hold the majority of companies accountable for their impacts in these high priority areas. This mapping exercise is an accessible and essential first step for companies in order to address their impact on biodiversity loss. Additionally, knowing and tracking species living next to a company’s location is a powerful tool to protect species at risk. However, only 7% of companies disclose the conservation status of the threatened and endangered species found near their operations

Key finding

There is no credible pathway towards nature-positive without respecting the rights of Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities

Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLC) often live in critical ecosystems and coexist with threatened species. They manage about 40% of all terrestrial protected areas and their ecological knowledge enables a sustainable existence worldwide. Yet, less than 13% of companies assessed express a clear commitment to respect Indigenous Peoples’ rights. To carry out projects with the potential to affect IPLCs, companies must commit to obtaining Free, Prior and Informed Consent from them to ensure their agency in the future of their territories. Additionally, despite the regular persecution of environmental- and rights-defenders, only a handful of companies have a policy in place to prevent such violent outcomes.

Key finding

Companies need to cultivate responsible lobbying on nature

Companies can be strong advocates for nature-positive policies when their advocacy is rooted in meaningful stakeholder engagement. Yet, while more than 58% of companies survey their stakeholders’ interests, only 8% incorporate their stakeholders’ feedback strategically. Moreover, companies undermine their advocacy efforts by not holding their own industry associations accountable. Recent research shows industry associations’ strong impact on nature but barely 2% of companies ensure their lobby groups are aligned with their climate pledges, let alone biodiversity.
