Climate Confident Using Finance To Protect And Enhance Biodiversity While Simultaneously Sequestering Carbon - A Chat With Ralph Chami
In previous episodes of this podcast, both Prof Sir David King of the Cambridge Centre for Climate Repair and Rob Gardner of St James' Wealth Management mentioned the role of whales, elephants, and biodiversity in general in sequestering carbon.
Interested to know more I came across Ralph Chami, Assistant Director at the International Monetary Fund and co-founder of Rebalance Earth whose seminal paper on placing a financial value on the carbon sequestration of whales (initially) kicked off this whole field.
I invited Ralph to come on the podcast to talk about these exciting new findings and how we can use finance to protect and enhance biodiversity while simultaneously sequestering carbon. It was a fascinating conversation. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I learned loads as always, and I hope you do too.
