Summary
Lucas and Luna explore the emerging market for biodiversity credits, a financial instrument that companies can buy to offset their impact on ecosystems. They dive into the specific case of the NatureMetrics biodiversity index, a pilot project in the UK that assigns dollar values to habitat restoration. Lucas explains how biodiversity credits differ from carbon credits, why the TNFD framework is driving corporate demand, and why the market could hit $30 billion by the end of the decade. Luna challenges the complexity of measuring biodiversity accurately, and the hosts debate whether this is a genuine conservation tool or a new form of greenwashing. They also discuss the role of regulation, the similarities to early carbon markets, and what investors should watch for in 2027. #BiodiversityCredits #NatureMetrics #TNFD #NaturalCapital #CarbonCredits #ESGInvesting #EcosystemServices #GreenFinance #ConservationFinance #SustainableInvesting #Economics #Business #Finance #Podcast #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #ClimateEconomics #Biodiversity Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
