First, what's the overall goal? #NaturePositive! (it's mentioned 19 times in the document)
What does this mean? Apparently - a "collective outcome" where the environment is "repaired, regenerated and protected", requiring action everyone, not just government.

🌱For the next couple of weeks, countries are coming together at the @UNBiodiversity #COP15 to adopt the landmark “Global Biodiversity Framework”.

1⃣ - A clear and ambitious “Mission” for 2030, to halt and reverse the loss of #biodiversity and secure a #NaturePositive world by the end of the decade.
👉It means that in 2030, we have more #Nature than there is now.

Al Gore ( WEF syndic) et al. sont TELLEMENT PRÉOCCUPÉS par le climat qu'ils sont en train de transformer l'ensemble de la nature en une nouvelle classe d'actifs - où ils POSSÉDERONT la nature, géreront/contrôleront et profiteront de la nature via les "sociétés d'actifs naturels".

La financiarisation de la nature, commercialisée avec une imagerie et un langage holistiques émotionnels, dirigée par WEF, WWF et Al Gore.
C'est la capture des biens communs par les entreprises, à l'échelle mondiale.

Xiye Bastida, the co-founder of the Re-Earth initiative, spoke with the Nature+ Newsroom at COP27 about the importance of not allowing corporations to dictate what activists can and cannot talk about.
Bastida said a supporting foundation of the Children and Youth Pavilion told attendees not to allow anyone to brand their organizations.
She mentioned that one of COP26’s issues was that it looked like an ad campaign, thanks to the corporate sponsors, and that COP27, which is sponsored by Coca-Cola, is exactly the same.
The idea that "environmental groups" are shocked over #CocaCola as sponsor of #COP27 is vacuous. If anything, this validates the vast corporate dominance accelerated over past 2.5 yrs, in tandem w/ #NGO "together" project of citizenry/state/corporation over past decade+.

To the corporate world & global finance, this is a signal, a nod, to the triumph of nature as a new asset class. Those with money will own nature.

The same entities seeking to grab lands from self-sufficient peoples in the Global South, '#ForNature', are also pushing non-animal sourced diets.

Why not just advocate genocide altogether, and be done with it?
Fewer humans, less impact on the environment...
Why not help create the kind of world sought by #NewDealForNature influencers and overpopulation advocates Attenborough and Goodall?

Instead of Indigenous and tribal peoples, the best guardians of #biodiversity, WWF would like central bankers to be "nature's next stewards".
