Are carbon markets a good model for investing in nature recovery?

Finance Theme Lead Alex Teytelboym, recently took part in a webinar analyzing approaches to scaling investment in nature recovery. At a time of urgent need for private finance to pick up the heavy lifting in nature recovery, Alex discussed why existing market designs such as carbon and Biodiversity Net Gain are not sufficient to scale investment in nature, and use an innovative case study to demonstrate how a different, auction based approach, could scale and enable investment. Alex discussed this approaches with Emily Norton, AFN Network+ Policy Champion, and natural capital markets expert.
