In this episode, we speak with Dan Yates, Executive Director of the
European Outdoor Conservation Association (EOCA), about why
biodiversity loss has become one of today’s most pressing
challenges for business, society, and the outdoor industry. We
explore the business case for biodiversity — and what it really
means for companies to become nature positive. What you’ll learn in
this episode: • Why biodiversity loss and climate change are deeply
connected — and how degraded ecosystems intensify climate impacts.
• What a nature-positive approach looks like in practice, far
beyond carbon accounting. • Why the outdoor industry is uniquely
positioned to lead on biodiversity action. • How investing in
nature creates long-term ecological benefits and immediate brand
value. • What companies can do right now — from reducing impacts to
partnering with credible conservation organizations. Dan also
shares insights into EOCA’s global conservation work, emerging
frameworks like TNFD, and why reconnecting people with nature is
essential for a sustainable future. References: EOCA-
