Nature Conservancy’s Jennifer Morris focuses on the global food system and climate change
Jennifer Morris, Anna Skoglund
Jennifer Morris, President of The Nature Conservancy, outlines a strategic shift toward measurable 2030 goals targeting the annual removal of three gigatons of carbon and the protection of 650 million hectares of land through direct corporate engagement and innovative finance. By executing $1.2 billion in debt-for-nature swaps across four nations and forging joint ventures like Pacific Island Tuna with Walmart, the organization leverages market mechanisms to fund conservation while mitigating sovereign debt and over-exploitation risks. This approach combines rigorous data tracking with a "problem-solver" philosophy that integrates agricultural transition and corporate partnerships to achieve the Paris Agreement's 1.5°C target.
