Natural Climate Solutions Alliance

ERM supports the Natural Climate Solutions (NCS) Alliance, convened by the World Economic Forum and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development to scale up affordable natural climate mitigation solutions for achieving the goals of the Paris Agreement on climate change. These include:

• Reforestation protection and conservation;
• Livestock, animal and land management; and
• Coastal wetland and peatland restoration, among other cost-effective solutions.

ERM's Emily Farnworth, recently appointed as a Global Director for Climate Change and Low Carbon Economy Transition has become a Platform Fellow of the World Economic Forum to provide leadership for the NCS Alliance.

The Alliance brings together public and private stakeholders to identify opportunities and barriers to investment into carbon credits in new, and existing markets, to increase financing for natural climate solutions.

The Alliance also serves as a forum for knowledge sharing and technical capacity building to ensure natural climate solutions reach their full potential in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, abating climate change.
