The Nature Intelligence Edge: Navigating Nature-Related Reporting
A practical guide to biodiversity indicators and frameworks - helping you navigate the rapidly evolving reporting landscape, from the condition of nature at sites, to the actions a business takes in response.
Inside this guide
Nature reporting requirements are multiplying, and the frameworks guiding them don't always make it easy to know where to start. This guide cuts through the complexity. It gives you a clear, practical map of what each framework requires, where the overlaps are, and how ground-level biodiversity data fits into the picture.
This guide was designed to complement part 1 of our Nature Intelligence webinar series, where we talk through elements of the guide in more detail. You can watch the recording here.
What’s inside
- A plain-English breakdown of the five most prominent nature reporting frameworks — CSRD, TNFD, SBTN, GRI, and CDP — including which are mandatory, which are voluntary, and how they relate to each other
- A State-Pressure-Response model for navigating disclosure requirements, showing how the same underlying data can often meet requirements across multiple frameworks simultaneously
- A detailed breakdown of state of nature requirements across seven topic areas, from species detection and ecosystem condition to connectivity and ecosystem services
- Clear guidance on where eDNA and bioacoustics play a primary role in meeting disclosure requirements, where they play a supporting role, and where they're already explicitly required by regulators
