The following sections delve into the nature-related risks and dependencies across 11 GICS sectors consisting of 157 sub-industries and 150+ economic production processes. As applicable, each sector and industry is cross referenced to SASB and NACE.
Industries are ordered based on the S&P Ecosystem Footprint, prioritizing sectors by their impact measured in hectares. This metric integrates three critical aspects: the land area affected by a company's operations, the extent of reduction in ecosystem integrity, and the importance of the impacted ecosystems. By amalgamating these factors, it calculates a company's equivalent impact on key global ecosystems in terms of biodiversity conservation and service provision, expressed as the number of hectares of the most significant ecosystems fully degraded.
