The Investor Nature Engagement Brief series provides practical guidance for investors engaging with the eight high-impact sectors identified by Nature Action 100. Each brief supports effective investor-company engagement to help drive positive outcomes for nature.
This brief focuses on the Metals & Mining sector.
The Metals & Mining sector is the fifth most environmentally impactful sector assessed, accounting for more than 4% of the overall potential impact on biodiversity from companies in the MSCI ACWI Index. As demand for minerals and metals continues to increase, informed investor engagement is essential to reduce impacts on biodiversity, land and water, while supporting a more sustainable sector transition.
This brief includes:
- Insights into the sector’s impacts and dependencies on nature, including key biodiversity risks
- Practical guidance on company actions that support alignment with the Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF)
- Ready-to-use engagement questions to help investors structure conversations with companies
- Curated tools, frameworks and resources to support effective nature-related engagement
