One of our strengths lies in developing customised plans to transition towards a future that contributes to a nature-positive world, aligned with the Kunming Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework and our planetary boundaries.

We support organisations to understand their interfaces with nature, the risks and opportunities these pose, and how to monitor progress.

Leveraging our in-depth expertise in ecology, environmental management, economics, and supply chains, our Nature Team is ready to propel your nature journey forward.

Water Stewardship

Understand your water-related dependencies and impacts, and develop Science-Based Targets and water stewardship strategies. Use these strategies to create accountability internally and externally around driving continuous improvement and action on shared water challenges.

Forest Positive

Develop a forest positive strategy that demonstrates your organisation’s commitment to implementing and investing in sustainable forestry practices. Support this strategy by crafting and implementing effective policies to ensure deforestation and conversion-free supply chains.

Regenerative Agriculture

Craft a regenerative agriculture strategy that drives value creation for your organisation. Be part of the movement to redefine our food systems’ relationship with nature by creating clear roadmaps to engage suppliers and farmers in contributing to a nature-positive future.

Ocean Positive

Develop an ocean-positive strategy that ensures investment in responsible ocean practices and contributes resources to regenerate marine ecosystems. By crafting effective policies, drive collective action among peers in the shipping, fishing, aquaculture, energy and tourism sectors.

Accounting for Nature® (AfN) is a transparent, affordable, verifiable and certifiable environmental accounting framework to inform better investment, policy and management decisions concerning natural capital. The AfN Framework can be used by any organisation or individual, who wants to understand whether actions are improving or degrading natural capital and who wishes to use a world-leading, scientifically rigorous methodology to create a certified environmental account. We support companies in measuring their natural capital, reporting under the Accounting for Nature framework, auditing and developing Environmental Accounts for the Accounting for Nature Standard. With four Accredited Experts on the AfN Register we’re here to support your project.

We have two accredited AfN Experts and two accredited AfN Auditors – out of only seven Australia-wide, on our team. 

The Task Force on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) is a global initiative focused on supporting organisations to understand their relationship with nature in terms of impacts, dependencies on ecosystem services, and risks and opportunities. TNFD reporting empowers organisations to navigate a changing business landscape, seize opportunities in the transition to a more sustainable economy, and contribute positively to environmental conservation.

With legal opinions in Australia and abroad confirming that Directors have a duty to consider material nature-related issues, and the possibility that in the future reporting to this framework may become mandatory, companies whhttps://www.water.vic.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0041/687848/water-sector-carbon-co-benefit-and-co-investment-guide-1-process-guide.pdfo lean into understanding the framework and their interface with nature early will benefit.

We support businesses across all stages of their climate and nature risk reporting including to the TNFD framework, the TCFD framework and also PCAF (Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials) to enhance and integrate climate and nature risk into internal processes. 

Our Australian Nature Solutions team has over a decade of experience in delivering advisory and auditing work under the ACCU Scheme (previously Emission Reduction Fund (ERF)) in addition to International carbon offset schemes.
