Hank Paulson’s COP 15 Keynote

December 14, 2022

Paulson Institute’s Chairman and Founder Hank Paulson delivers remarks on the Paulson Institute’s contributions to the negotiations. Hank highlights four key takeaways from Financing Nature:

Preventing environmental damage is far cheaper than cleaning it up afterward.
We are losing biodiversity rapidly because political and economic systems and financial markets do not properly account for nature’s services.
The biodiversity financing gap is about $711 billion over the next ten years.
Biodiversity loss and climate change are twin crises that must be addressed simultaneously.
