Pentland Centre researchers are tracking the adoption of the guidance by corporations with a particular focus on the extent to which biodiversity scenarios are being used.
Biodiversity scenario development is recommended within the TNFD and is a technique where hypothetical, but plausible, narratives of the future are developed for organisations to use to help them assess their exposure to nature-related risks and opportunities.
Scenario analysis is a longstanding business practice but applying this within the context of TNFD reporting has some novelty. In order to support business and their advisors, we have prepared a briefing note on corporate biodiversity scenarios. We developed both a short and a longer version on this topic and hope you will find it useful to inform your thinking and practice.
