Government urged to force businesses to disclose nature impact
Parents and children outside the Houses of Parliament in London before meeting with MPs to call on them to protect their children's futures by opposing all new oil and gas extraction in Britain, March 4, 2025
BUSINESSES should be required to disclose their environmental impact to drive investment in nature restoration, the government has been urged.

In a new report released today, the organisation said such measures could also help establish a new economic indicator that moves beyond gross domestic product (GDP) — which only focuses on value to the economy.
