In 2026, the corporate mandate has fundamentally shifted. The "Carbon-only" era of sustainability has ended, replaced by a more complex, scientifically rigorous, and legally binding requirement:
Nature Positivity.As the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) transitions from a voluntary framework to a core component of UK and international reporting, the biodiversity of your supply chain is no longer a peripheral ethical concern—it is a material financial risk.
At Enviropass, we provide the scientific expertise and strategic clarity required to navigate this transition. We don't just count species; we map the ecological dependencies that underpin your business resilience.
Supply Chain Biodiversity: Deciphering the Hidden Risks in Your Value Chain
For many UK firms, the primary sustainability focus has historically been Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions. However, the introduction of the UK Sustainability Reporting Standards (UK-SRS) and the extraterritorial reach of the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) have expanded the scope of accountability.
A major portion of a typical corporation’s impact on nature occurs within its supply chain—far beyond its direct operational control. In 2026, regulators and institutional investors now demand "Double Materiality": an assessment of how biodiversity loss impacts your bottom line, and how your operations impact the biosphere.
partner, translating complex ecological data into board-ready financial intelligence.
The goal is not just to "do less harm." In line with the Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF), we help you transition to Nature Positive. This includes:
To provide credible, audit-ready data, Enviropass employs the industry’s most robust quantitative models.
While larger firms treat biodiversity as a subset of ESG, Enviropass treats it as a primary technical discipline.
Reporting is the start. The true value of a Supply Chain Biodiversity audit is the competitive advantage it provides. Companies that manage their nature risks today will have the most resilient supply chains tomorrow. They will secure better financing and build unshakeable brand trust. The window for voluntary action is closing. The era of nature-accountability is here.
Carbon is a global metric; a tonne of CO2 is the same everywhere. Biodiversity is locational. Our methodology accounts for these geographic nuances using the "SAR" (Species-Area Relationship) principle.
We use a combination of supplier surveys and Multi-Regional Input-Output models. This allows us to provide a comprehensive view even when direct data is initially incomplete.
No. Large firms are already cascading these requirements down to their SME suppliers as part of their Scope 3 obligations. SME suppliers must prove their nature-positive credentials to remain preferred partners.
