00:00:00
thank you for the lovely nothing uh my belly um uh injury and urine five
00:00:06
a presentation um that was kind of fun of this one with a thank you
00:00:14
but thanks to um uh invite false uh uh for inviting me to make his presentation actually
00:00:20
i'm kind of team to get through it because what i'm really wanting to listen to some of the pictures that went to town
00:00:26
uh in the context oh well i'm going to make a few reflections all
00:00:30
so um so so that any kind of set out a little bit of a macro
00:00:35
a context within which i think some of the pages and discussions today
00:00:40
uh and yesterday uh our type thing but it's a if it's one thing to take it out all
00:00:47
p. fifteen minutes so i go uh is
00:00:50
that although we have a long and hold history
00:00:56
in the dynamic relationship between nature and
00:00:59
the global economy we have reach some walls
00:01:03
oh oh shit and although you would probably say h. well what his because of the
00:01:09
to to racial status of nature and the critical and dangerous
00:01:14
effects that are uh more broadly in relation to climb up actually
00:01:19
my historical re shook slightly differently i i think we are
00:01:24
yeah we have a point of a moment in history where yeah
00:01:29
nature national capital for the first time is going to be in modern tries at skier
00:01:35
and so in a sense we get what we want
00:01:38
to do which is nature becomes counted and increasingly counsellors
00:01:43
in the global economy and the question is whether that is the only going into a new era
00:01:49
where we live more effectively and build our economy is in harmony
00:01:54
with natural capital one major weather actually with
00:01:58
standing on the edge of a press this
00:02:01
where money privation movie each one acceleration of extracted an
00:02:06
inequitable our concert i think actually frozen with yeah yeah it's
00:02:11
uh and uh if there's anything to do it sort
00:02:15
of now so that would be my sort of overall message
00:02:19
but i think we're all now working within that we sort
00:02:23
of cheese ah i'm in a little bit more these are
00:02:27
let me sum up by saying the same thing uh in full
00:02:31
simple numbers uh so it is it true that a hundred percent
00:02:37
of our global economy is a hundred times dependent on nature
00:02:44
contrary to many other estimates other suggest thirty or
00:02:48
forty percent or twenty stands for many other numbers
00:02:51
like around but there is no joe no prob
00:02:55
ah no service no market it isn't entirely and exclusively
00:03:01
depends on on major and so we have to think well actually risen means the way
00:03:06
in which we will that markets going forward to illustrate uh my second set of numbers
00:03:13
the the global through system today is about a
00:03:17
trillion dollar a. uh who's a part of the global
00:03:21
economy if you think of the global economy is
00:03:23
around ninety trillion dollars you can see how significant chunk
00:03:28
about local economy through system really as well and our estimates
00:03:33
but the annual negative extra analyses dreams justin amount to twelve trillion dollars
00:03:40
so fifteen cents if you live in moment
00:03:43
price from all the total revenue flows associations
00:03:48
with that sector now basically right since the nature
00:03:51
affects climate fest and public health effects and calls
00:03:56
but i was an estimate we debate this trial the rest of it is true
00:04:01
it is an indication of the sky which haven't
00:04:04
we had as we use some approximation drawing me to
00:04:10
the way in which markets again to illustrate the same
00:04:15
point i have three different when some of you may see
00:04:18
or or what else uh a few days ago
00:04:21
it's no recourse over um a calculating the total
00:04:26
amounts of annual environmental relations sauces one point eight trillion was
00:04:32
the estimate of the beach theme and all those working with them
00:04:37
principally in i am for three but also in other one
00:04:41
point i surely and all the idea of a soft is very
00:04:46
similar to the sort of numbers that you see in the
00:04:49
discussion about five and a and clean energy and fossil fuels oscillates
00:04:55
and my fall and was number just to kind of keep us on the road
00:05:00
is really to do with how the markets and the images to clean the last couple years
00:05:06
all volunteer problem or okay so these don't
00:05:08
recall rights or effectively reaching out on voluntary
00:05:12
fallen off test in order to drive yeah
00:05:16
position downs and zero in on their ability
00:05:20
to uh rhythms also hold on emissions en mass surgeon markets
00:05:26
which one row row in some market probably numbering tens if
00:05:30
not hundreds of billions of dollars via e. estimates on all
00:05:35
the forty cents of cotton office available along to our market
00:05:39
will come from mention based solutions i would be associated the management of
00:05:44
national capital and the associated to call in storage health system service characterise
00:05:51
ah that's interesting well at least i hope and peace as an illustration
00:05:57
of the scale of importance of national capital going forward in the way
00:06:01
in which we deal with climate change the role of those numbers and there are
00:06:06
many others uh who who put on the table early intended to sore point again
00:06:11
so this is a critical role of natural rather than
00:06:14
increasing money privation of now have walk in our local economy
00:06:20
no one and one of the c. or everybody the
00:06:22
organisational i'd share um as the name suggests with all
00:06:27
to focus on the nexus between finance major in particular uh i'm out of our
00:06:33
work has focused on how the financial community right prices nature and that in the main
00:06:40
has to do with risks associated with the dependency or economic assets
00:06:45
on economics on actresses them services from dangerous and so on like column we
00:06:51
look good combinations coming out of economic interest is in this case for focus principally
00:06:57
on the issue of dependencies and impress
00:07:00
uh no yeah normally access you know itself
00:07:04
and installs an age related financial disclosure and watch 'em in the middle of last year
00:07:10
the equivalence of the twelve holes long time related financial
00:07:13
disclosure and is if you like the foundation initiative machine
00:07:18
it would local financial sector to arrive nature related risk not unisys it's true
00:07:23
financial decision making across a whole financial and capital markets and that
00:07:28
work has really only just begun but is quickly moving not see
00:07:33
over time the work of climate related with which is now are
00:07:37
reasonably sure it is the only reason is to the rising very rapidly
00:07:43
i'm not on the radar ready portion of the financial community international and
00:07:50
we begin to see nature related risks figuring in all sorts of aspects
00:07:55
all different parts of the financial system uh most recently we against the
00:08:02
national capital feature in a and so when that markets hundred trillion dollars
00:08:07
uh was a store and the market as we have seen in the last quite used on the rest
00:08:13
becoming an increasingly significant time to uh so too with
00:08:17
beginning no to see nature figuring on major capitals spirit
00:08:21
in the way in which someone risk is price or in d.
00:08:26
looking at some of the nation's this what's the major
00:08:29
performance owns a innovations in the market also is the
00:08:34
how nature is becoming a an area where commitments have been made by so when she was
00:08:41
in return reduce costs of capital today if we see a team from a new government actually
00:08:48
uh doing roadshow around your hands you if you it's first
00:08:52
sustainability leans over and ball which will in fact it will first
00:08:57
sustainability links sorry ball lean into climate nature related
00:09:03
our concern very interesting developments happening
00:09:06
at that nexus between loan upscale financing
00:09:10
as well and uh and the main show started up there
00:09:15
but of course finance the nature is an important piece of the story but not a whole
00:09:20
store and we also need to look that is the real economy and what's that on the
00:09:25
uh and then we begin to see a sort of comparative emergence of a similar son or uh
00:09:32
with a new generation of major markets beginning june but my major markets
00:09:39
i guess i would simply say markets
00:09:41
where there are nations specific revenue streams association
00:09:45
with yeah obviously some of those are markets that have been around forever and it i
00:09:51
we might call them in transit markets where i
00:09:53
flew to will uh aspects of nature be actively
00:09:57
tried it so that we know what our falls
00:10:00
becoming of increasing interest and scale and i and profitability
00:10:06
across a number of different sectors column lean to nine should lay solutions
00:10:11
is an area i've already highlighted southern jane amounts of revenue flows and deals
00:10:17
being done in buying fallen off this link to nature assets in red actually
00:10:24
we didn't see a real first generation
00:10:28
of biodiversity credit so the only home
00:10:31
uh beginning to feature a across another markets probably with
00:10:36
a a at a national level yeah case in point where
00:10:39
that's going on in australia but when one looks at that
00:10:42
point point of what was going on uh among many universes
00:10:46
we can imagining is come the m. b. launch and liquid
00:10:50
by those credit markets are the best of was unless of course
00:10:55
the underlying point log come back to it again and it yeah
00:11:00
now how does that all three each to what we might call
00:11:04
the rule that you have a competitive lance what happens in the finest bicycles is that
00:11:10
problems on the financial community has been reluctant radiation lab agenda
00:11:15
and then so one day and of course it's a carriage and i went oh my goodness we can make a
00:11:20
huge amount of money out of this we should really
00:11:23
pilot and that was very apparent how twenty six in glasgow
00:11:28
when you you can call fifteen the name when the conference some biological
00:11:33
lusty places are the answer is probably no yeah in the climate safely see
00:11:40
t. technological transformation notably in the energy system but cascading
00:11:46
you know about diversity ah and infrastructure and so on
00:11:50
uh and all the natural lives in new generation of highly profitable markets
00:11:55
in the nation's lace the same is not yet sure uh and so
00:12:01
where winning arrived was really where those lot kyle scalable come all the
00:12:08
time the whole industry multiple investment opportunities going to throw in some ways
00:12:15
food is to niger as energy is to colorado
00:12:20
and so when actually looks to whether they're against the law scale
00:12:25
surges in in in this is in place as it begins to transition
00:12:30
two was not just a net zero or the nation also
00:12:33
to unaffordable nutrition model and not surprisingly certainly someone close to you
00:12:39
a little farming alternative protein as close as we can see
00:12:44
to sort of next gen capital intensive several churches in mass less
00:12:50
uh i guess just closing off on his own a it's
00:12:54
a remote uh i will come back to my original point
00:12:58
uh which is historically our challenges pain
00:13:03
how can we ensure that nature is qantas
00:13:06
uh where effectively it is modern life no one will
00:13:10
even have native prices associated with it across the global economy
00:13:16
today we see this extraordinary to the beginning to happen
00:13:21
the modern translation of nature across multiple markets in the financial economy
00:13:26
as well as the rate it from our challenge of
00:13:29
school system makes specific investments in many ways that we're
00:13:33
looking at train cool so today and yesterday but it's
00:13:38
well worth while doing that in the rule the context
00:13:42
of thinking about how mention markets against will manage
00:13:45
in the future than knowing extracted the only fair way
00:13:50
but the little nation positive outcomes and i could all distribution those rules
00:13:56
i guess in closing yeah the sort of english at age
00:14:00
you know because when you are whole comes my own and i
00:14:03
think that's the moment we rely that in the role of nature
00:14:07
that local economy but it's entirely within them and our me shady
00:14:12
financial instruments cost and governance of market strange sure
00:14:17
but at this moment to change we will to live a
00:14:20
a kind of major positive outcomes were actually all committed to
00:14:25
thank you very much i think okay within time which was the
00:14:28
problem with them on a from the witnesses when i write to you
00:14:39
thank you thank you very much for sale actually trained for the next set of conversations
