Background
Economic growth is only sustainable if it is in line with the limits of nature. Through transformative economic policies and new investments, sustainable job creation can be achieved while protecting the global commons, respecting rights, and delivering nature-based benefits for all, but we must intentionally factor in the values of nature and biodiversity to do so.
