Financing Nature. Closing the Global Financing Gap of Biodiversity

Financing Nature. Closing the Global Financing Gap of Biodiversity, report by Paulson Institute, The Nature Conservancy and Conrnell Atkinson Center on Sustainability, estimated financial flows into global biodiversity conservation in 2019 as between US$ 124 and US$ 143 billion. This represents a near-tripling in funding since 2012 but, to put it in context, spending on agricultural, forestry, and fisheries subsidies that degrade nature is at least two to four times greater. And that does not include subsidies for fossil fuels. According to the authors, to reverse the decline in biodiversity by 2030, our analysis suggests that, globally, we need to spend between US$ 722-967 billion each year over the next ten years. That puts the biodiversity financing gap at an average US$ 711 billion or between US$ 598-824 billion per year. Según los autores, para revertir la pérdida de biodiversidad para 2030, es necesario invertir a escala mundial entre 722 000 y 967 000 M$ cada año durante la próxima década. Esta cifra sitúa la brecha de financiación de la biodiversidad en una media de 711 000 M$ o entre 598 000 y 824 000 millones de USD anuales.
