EOCA - Nature positive with Dan Yates

Episode von Neue Horizonte von Globetrotter Ausrüstung | Fabian Nendza | Podcastfabrik · 27. November 2025 · 1 h 03 min

In this episode, we speak with Dan Yates, Executive Director of the European Outdoor Conservation Association (EOCA), about why biodiversity loss has become one of today’s most pressing challenges for business, society, and the outdoor industry. We explore the business case for biodiversity — and what it really means for companies to become nature positive.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

• Why biodiversity loss and climate change are deeply connected — and how degraded ecosystems intensify climate impacts.

• What a nature-positive approach looks like in practice, far beyond carbon accounting.

• Why the outdoor industry is uniquely positioned to lead on biodiversity action.

• How investing in nature creates long-term ecological benefits and immediate brand value.

• What companies can do right now — from reducing impacts to partnering with credible conservation organizations.

Dan also shares insights into EOCA’s global conservation work, emerging frameworks like TNFD, and why reconnecting people with nature is essential for a sustainable future.
