Welcome to GreenMoney’s October, 2025 issue on Biodiversity: Investing in Nature. This uniquely inspiring issue highlights the fact that over half of the global economy – a staggering $44 trillion in business – is dependent on Nature’s services. Nicole Miller, CEO of Biomimicry 3.8 makes the business case for nature-inspired innovation; Leslie Samuelrich, president of Green Century Funds emphasizes the key role companies play in the future of biodiversity; Jason Britton of Newday Investments underscores why your portfolio needs biodiversity; and Craig Wichner of Farmland LP reveals the benefits of AI for regenerative agriculture. As well, we feature a NYT Climate Forward keynote video with André Corrêa do Lago, president of COP30 in Brazil and an uplifting podcast with Janine Benyus on ‘Biomimicry and Designing with Life’s Intelligence’.

Together, they outline the principles of biomimicry — the practice of looking to ecosystems, organisms and natural patterns for sustainable solutions to human challenges. From the way forests manage resources to the
aerodynamics of fish, Janine reveals how nature has already solved many of the problems we face today. The Nature Of with Willow Defebaugh of Atmos
