Global Nature Risk gives a single 0 to 1 nature-risk score for every site, so you can screen an entire portfolio in one layer, find the assets that put consent or financing at risk, and know what to validate first.

One 0-1 risk score. Three layers behind it
Combine State of Nature, dependencies and impact into a single 0 to 1 score for every asset, then flags the sites where ground-truth species data will matter most.
- Globally applicable, no geographic or sector exclusions
- Integrates with climate risk and ESG
- Audit-ready methodology, traceable to peer-reviewed sources
- Quarterly updates, aligned to reporting cycles
One consistent score across every site.
Ranked by risk & opportunity
Compare, prioritise, and act with confidence. Built on 26 globally validated geospatial datasets, each score is calibrated to your operations, with TNFD-aligned outputs that hold up with regulators and investors.

We score every asset
State of Nature, Dependencies, and Impact scores are generated for each site so you know where nature risk is concentrated.

Filter the heatmap, drill into single-site reports, export TNFD-aligned evidence packs, and validate the highest-risk sites with eDNA or bioacoustics on the ground.

What it looks like for your team
The same 0–1 methodology. Different jobs-to-be-done depending on where you operate.

Mining & Extractives
Protect operating licences. Direct closure and remediation spend where it counts. Spot water-security risk before forecasts feel it.
Job-to-be-done: Avoid permit revocations and project delays from noise, water-quality, or ecosystem-condition triggers.

Energy
Screen hundreds of sites before boots-on-the-ground spend. Identify protected area proximity, water dependency and ecosystem sensitivity before capital commits.
Job-to-be-done: Front-load due diligence on protected areas and ecosystem condition to cut regulatory back-and-forth.

Infrastructure & Utilities
Find degrading natural buffers before failure events force reactive spend. Automate double- materiality. Generate the evidence Green Bonds and sustainability-linked finance need.
Job-to-be-done: CSRD / ESRS materiality at portfolio scale, without the manual workload.

Consumer Goods & Agriculture
See the nature exposure inside your supply chain, from soil depletion and water stress in raw-material catchments to ecosystem pressure on sourcing regions, before it shows up in yield or COGS.
Job-to-be-done: Map supply-chain dependency and impact hotspots to meet TNFD & CSRD without rebuilding the data layer.

Conservation & Forestry
Score prospective acquisitions and existing holdings for nature exposure across state of nature, impacts and dependencies. Decide where deeper due diligence is warranted before capital is on the table or tied up.
Job-to-be-done: Rapid, consistent nature risk screening across target portfolios pre-LOI and pre-close.

Financial services
Turn site-level biodiversity data into the evidence funders and investors need to release capital. Know which sites face the highest permanence risk and focus your resources where the ecological stakes are highest.
Job-to-be-done: Give funders the portfolio-wide risk evidence they need to commit capital with confidence.
Built for enterprise reality, at
portfolio scale
Globally applicable
No geographic or sector exclusions. Same methodology from tropical rainforests to urban logistics hubs processed in a single run.
Integrates with climate risk & ESG
Outputs designed to sit alongside climate physical risk and ESG scores in a unified risk framework. Avoids double-counting where dependencies overlap.
Audit-ready methodology
Every score traceable to its peer-reviewed source data and traceable over time.
Quarterly updates
Data refreshed to align with financial reporting cycles. Scores reflect the most current available geospatial data, not a point-in-time snapshot.
Intelligence built on scientific integrity
Many tools can show proximity to a protected area. Only NatureMetrics combines a proprietary eDNA database, built over a decade across 126+ countries, with an integrated platform that turns risk scores into action.

Frequently Asked Questions
Global Nature Risk is a portfolio-wide nature risk screening and due-diligence tool that gives organisations a dynamic, quarterly-updated 0–1 risk score for every site, asset or geography. It combines a business's impacts on nature, its dependencies on nature, and the condition of nature itself into a single, comparable signal.
Any asset, anywhere in the world, can be assessed within days. All we need is your site locations and project/operation type - no specialist ecological data required to get started.
Most nature risk tools answer one materiality question. Global Nature Risk answers both — what your business does to nature, and what nature does to your business — on one consistent scale, across your entire portfolio. Identify your highest-risk sites, drill into ground-truthed site data to understand what's driving exposure - and watch that intelligence feed back into your portfolio risk view quarterly.
Global Nature Risk is aligned with the TNFD framework and supports broader compliance requirements including CSRD and SBTN. Scores are designed to feed directly into disclosure workflows and double materiality assessments.
The tool is built to operate at scale, from a handful of priority assets to thousands of sites across a global portfolio, with scores that aggregate up and break down to site-level drivers.
Risk scores are refreshed quarterly, meaning organisations can track how their exposure changes over time and monitor whether interventions are delivering measurable results.
Global Nature Risk is the screening and prioritisation layer within the NatureMetrics Nature Intelligence Platform. Where it surfaces high-risk sites, organisations can move directly to deeper investigation using our eDNA surveys, bioacoustics monitoring, and Earth Observation data. This higher resolution site level data informs the on-the-ground action required to reduce risk. As interventions take effect, quarterly score updates mean progress is visible in the same Global Nature Risk view you started from.
