Rapid growth of the global economy has accelerated the degradation
of the Earth's most important asset: the environment. Increasing
poverty and challenges arising from climate change further threaten
the planet's natural systems. With a rising global population, the
demand on natural resources to cover even basic human needs is
intensifying - supporting businesses that promote the sustainable
use of natural resources and help ensure their long-term viability
is imperative. As part of a pioneering movement to harness business
towards effecting environmental change, The Nature Conservancy
launched EcoEnterprises Fund in 2000 to provide investment capital
to grow small "eco"-businesses in Latin America. There is a
compelling need for financing this niche. Companies of this size
truly drive change - creating the engine for economic activity and
generating livelihoods for bottom of the pyramid rural peoples
which brings about positive social and conservation impacts.
EcoEnterprises Fund's portfolio highlights twenty-three
cutting-edge companies, in expanding sectors such as organic
agriculture, ecotourism, sustainable forestry, and non-timber
forest products which include innovative industry first-movers-from
organic shrimp to biodynamic flowers, and ready-to-drink smoothies
made from the latest Amazonian berry. With a successful ten-year
track record, EcoEnterprises Fund has valuable learning to share -
from what pitfalls to avoid when structuring investments to what
types of assistance entrepreneurs in these emerging environmental
sectors need most. Portfolio for the Planet translates a decade of
experience into accessible lessons for both veterans and newcomers
in the field: for those interested in investing in sustainable
businesses, discovering novel approaches to environmental
conservation, or seeing entrepreneurs pursue their dreams.
Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly and Michael Douglas star in this sci-fi
action movie following the Marvel Comics superhero. Decades earlier
scientist Hank Pym (Douglas) invented a special suit that would
allow him to transform to the size of an ant and give him super
strength. The ageing hero approaches petty thief Scott Lang (Rudd)
and, with the help of his daughter Hope Van Dyne (Lilly), Hank
trains him to become the new Ant-Man. After Darren Cross (Corey
Stoll) takes over his former mentor Pym's business he produces a
similar suit to be worn by the military as well as a more powerful
suit for himself, transforming him into Yellowjacket. This results
in chaos and it's up to Ant-Man to use both his thieving skills and
his newfound abilities to save the day.
