Fola is a specialist nature consultancy.

We create value for business and society by driving understanding, accountability and action on nature.

Working with corporates and financial institutions, we help businesses to understand their interface with nature, how they need to report and how to develop credible strategies.  

We want to mainstream our conviction that a healthy planet is essential for business.

The name Fola derives from the four realms of Earth: Freshwater, Oceans, Land and Atmosphere.

Why nature, why now?

Nature provides the foundations of our economies and societies – from the air we breathe and the water we drink to the soil we grow our food in. Everyone, everywhere depends on nature.

However, nature is declining faster than any point in human history.

We have seen drastic change since 1970


WWF Living Planet Report 2022

According to the World Economic Forum, environmental risks are now the most significant risks identified by global executives for the next decade. However, they are also the risks for which businesses are least prepared.

Nature is no longer a corporate social responsibility issue, but a core strategic risk management issue alongside climate change.

What this means for business

01.

Businesses face major financial risk due to nature loss

55% of global GDP – equivalent to about US$58 trillion - is highly or moderately dependent on nature. Nature is a material financial risk, not a CSR opportunity.

02.

Governments are now mobilising through policy and fiscal action

The new Global Biodiversity Framework commits 200 governments to action and we are already seeing a step change in regulated nature reporting through the EU CSRD.

03.

There are valuable opportunities for early movers

Businesses that build robust approaches to nature will not only mitigate financial risk but tap into new market opportunities and find win-wins for net zero.
