Nature was gently nudging me to purchase a copy of Robert McFarlane’s book “Is a river alive?” this morning when I found a beautiful tiny dragon fly sat calmly on the front cover in the middle of a busy town book shop. Nature won! Sold. Sorry David - next time.

One thing I love about my job is that I get to work on critical issues that I’m deeply passionate about while also getting to geek out on the science and data! Enter LEON #LeveragingEarthObservation for #NatureFinance! Thank you so much @esa.int for hosting us - thrilled to be working with you!

The Environmental Audit Committee is conducting an enquiry on the role of natural capital in the green economy. Our evidence shows that nature is the foundation to our economic stability and that finance and policy, including the UK Green Taxonomy, can play a crucial role: lnkd.in/eaU2BXK4

#Development and #ClimateFinance in Concert. It was wonderful to work with the World Bank’s Climate Finance Mobilization Unit this week on how we can align global #carbonfinance with local development and resilience goals - including protecting natural capital - and empower and enable communities.

Calling out for recommendations. Just finished reading Nemonte’s fantastic book. Such a wonderful book with many lessons for climate, social and environmental action. Any recommendations of other great grass-roots books on environmental and social law and justice? #WeWillNotBeSaved

Great to be at MIT today with my fantastic NatureFinance@Oxford colleague Sophus Zu Ermgassen presenting his Nature paper on scaling up robust nature credit markets. He explains that today only 20% of credits are “real” an additional and proposes a new approach www.nature.com/articles/s41....

Does the world need a “Earth Stability Board”?! How do we define “Systemically important natural systems? And how are they impacted by global finance?” It was such a pleasure to present these and other ideas at @naturerecovery.bsky.social. See recording below:
