This week: Francis Gassert, strategy and impact lead at Vizzuality, talks with Innovation Forum's Ian Welsh about measuring impact and how to ensure credibility when doing so. They discuss the importance of companies considering their land, carbon and biodiversity impacts and incoming regulatory changes driving this action.
And, at COP28, United Arab Emirates' $100m game changing loss and reparation pledge; Civil Society Equity Review's report estimates developing countries require $209bn yearly for renewable energy transition; global methane pledge to cut atmospheric methane by 30% by 2030; and, new research by data and monitoring provider Space Intelligence finds major flaws in earlier research scrutinising voluntary carbon markets and REDD+ projects, in the news digest.
