The Biodiversity Risk Filter - A Tool to Save Lives
summary
WWF launches a Biodiversity Risk Filter: a free open source, web tool built with BCG, IUCN, NASA, World Bank and TRAFFIC that turns a company’s commodity dependencies into a region‑level risk profile. Users enter simple dependency data and the engine queries 50 datasets to flag issues like protected areas, water scarcity, pollination loss, indigenous rights and soil health. Claims include measured 70% animal population decline since 1970; tool is live, self‑assessment first pass to prepare for likely regulation.
