For example, the IPCC has calculated that two of the most impactful solutions to rapidly reduce emissions by 2030 are stopping the destruction of forests and other wild places and restoring degraded forests. \u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>“Leaders often talk of the desire to leave a legacy – what greater legacy could there be than ensuring the future of the planet?

Funding carbon reduction projects - ranging from forest conservation projects that provide training on sustainable land management and biodiversity conservation, to developing community-scale solar power solutions for businesses and households–all help to achieve this.”   \u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Compared with other costs, 1.5% is a fraction of the average amount spent on other critical business priorities – for example, some companies spend 12% on Research and Development.  \u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>“The cost of inaction will be greater – financially, reputationally, competitively and environmentally. We hope that companies look at these calculations and realize the potential impact they can have through investing in the planet,” added Hickok. \u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Climate Impact Partners tracks the climate commitments of the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fifnotnowwhen.climateimpact.com\u002F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fortune Global 500\u003C\u002Fa>.
