GBF Target 4
GRI 101-7 The organization can report information for the following species: species whose local or overall populations have or could be changed significantly; species that are legally protected by local, natoonal or international laws and conventions; species that are recognized as a priority species at the local, national or international level; species that have a critical role in the ecosystem; species that have a significant cultural or economic role for stakeholders (e.g., hunting, harvesting, pollination)
Target example
i
An example target and the target source are presented to illustrate how a target could be set for this metric. Learn more on the Methodology page.
[Company name] will have zero conversion of [specify relevant threatened species] habitat in [target location(s)] by [2025, or earliest post-2025 date], compared with a 2020* cutoff year
(* While the cutoff date of 2020 and the goal of no conversion is aligned both to science and international commitments and policies, the target date may differ based on implementation hurdles and local context.)
