The degradation of the world’s ecosystems and the services they provide is creating a range of risks and opportunities for companies. The
private sector contributes to ecosystem change, while also depending on
the goods and services ecosystems provide. WRI works to align ecosystem stewardship with the attainment of business goals. Our solutions:
- Corporate Ecosystem Services Review (ESR): a structured methodology for corporate managers to proactively develop strategies for managing business risks and opportunities arising from their companies’ dependence and impact on ecosystems.
- The Business & Ecosystems Leadership Group (PDF, 557 Kb): an innovative partnership between WRI and leading companies dedicated to advancing business strategies, markets, and policies that align corporate performance and ecosystem stewardship.
- Ecosystem Services for Corporate Decision Making: integrating ecosystem services considerations into existing environmental management tools and due diligence systems.
- Support responsible procurement of forest products: provide
purchasers with reliable, impartial, and easy-to-understand advice on
forest product procurement policies.
