World Benchmarking Alliance+NAT.B06.EA Ecosystem Restoration Commitment+methodology

WBA analysed all publicly available group-level disclosure in English on the applicable group website, which was predominantly annual reports and sustainability reports. Draft assessments were then sent to each company inviting them to provide feedback. This feedback could include additional publicly available group disclosure published. These were then reviewed and finalised. Final assessments were then shared with each company before being published online.

For this metric the company has a commitment to restore ecosystems across the most relevant parts of its value chain. The commitment can be in the form of a public policy or a statement by the company. Ideally, restoration and regeneration actions should align with existing commitments. For example, Bonn Challenge commitments exist in many countries and aim to have 350 million hectares of degraded land under restoration by 2030 (non-exhaustive, other challenges / commitments out there also).
