Critical Juncture: The Future of Nature and Business with Xinqing Lu

March 18, 2022 • Season 3 • Episode 3

In this episode we’ll be hearing from Xinqing Lu, who is leading the work for Champions for Nature. This is an initiative of the World Economic Forum, comprised of a community of leaders from the public and private sectors, civil society and academia with a goal to lead the charge in innovating ideas to address the climate crisis.

During our time together, we discuss what advocating for a net-zero, nature-positive global economy means and looks like, as Xinqing works to ensure nature and nature-based solutions will be at the heart of international policy commitments in the years to come.

We also reflect on the role of global citizenship and intercultural exchange to address climate change and halt biodiversity loss.
