RT Report T1 Technical Annex - State of Finance for Nature: The Big Nature Turnaround - Repurposing $7 trillion to combat nature loss A1 United Nations Environment Programme, K1 environmental financing K1 nature-based solution K1 investment K1 financing SN 978-92-807-4108-7 YR 2023 FD 2023-12 LK https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/44706 UL https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/44706 NO Almost $7 trillion is invested annually in practices detrimental to nature from both public and private sector sources globally. For the first time, the 2023 edition of the State of Finance for Nature report estimates the scale of nature-negative finance flows from both public and private sector sources globally. The figure is daunting – almost US$7 trillion per year - and is likely to be an underestimate given it includes only direct impacts. This sum underscores the urgency to address the interconnected crises of climate change, biodiversity loss, and land degradation. DS UN Environment Document Repository RD Sep 17, 2026
