- Over 50% of global GDP depends moderately to highly on nature and its services.
- This highlights the financial materiality and broad impact of nature-related risks on the economy.
Bird Flu Impact on Egg Prices
- Changes in migration routes of wild birds increase virus transmission to poultry, causing bird flu outbreaks.
- This reduces egg supply, leading to a dramatic rise in egg prices and impacting the whole supply chain.
