FAIRR at COP15

COP 15 was the 2022 UN Biodiversity Conference held in Montreal, Canada. FAIRR was delighted to attend and participate in a conference that ultimately led to the adoption of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, an international agreement to protect 30% of land and oceans by 2030, especially in light of our new data showing the world’s biggest meat and dairy producers are currently unprepared to meet these targets. The industry will need to adapt urgently, and FAIRR showed strong support for the target on companies disclosing their nature-related risks and impacts.
