Client examples
Mining client
We performed a desk-based review to identify emerging issues and nature-related risks for a top 10 metals producer. This supported the development of their business case for nature-positive.
This included a review of their "biodiversity position", commitments, procedures and guidance. We explored how biodiversity and ecosystem services risks and issues are managed and reported, identified gaps, strengths, and development areas.
