According to an emerging analysis by Vivid Economics, for every single euro invested through the EU member states' National Resilience and Recovery Plans, only less than 2 cents benefit nature. This is a huge missed opportunity for jobs, economic stimulus, emission reductions and biodiversity gains - in contrast to what the President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen has described the EU Recovery Plans as "the opportunity of the century". Despite a wide array of available reports, tools, and guidance, there is still much work to be done in order to convince decision-makers of the significant benefits that climate-positive and nature-based solutions can offer as part of their recovery plans.
