Nature-Based Solutions for Enhancing Climate Resilience: Data Drives Impact
Measuring the impact of nature-based solutions (NBS) interventions takes consistent ground-level data alongside independent, verifiable, satellite-based data. When collected together, the door opens for more private sector investment, helping to close the nature finance gap that’s at least $700 billion large. We bring you examples from Bangladesh and India to explore how projects are enticing more resources through the capture and use of remote sensing data.
Episode Guests include:
- Paulina Villalpando, Associate Director for Nature, HSBC
- Fred Stolle, Land & Carbon Lab Director of Impact, WRI
- Dipak Zade, Social Sciences Thematic Lead, WOTR
