Finanças e bioeconomia: a hora da ação no G-20

The text discusses Brazil's leadership in the G-20 to establish a Bioeconomy Initiative focused on science, technology, innovation, and sustainable biodiversity use. It emphasizes the need for 'High-Level Principles' to be included in the Rio Declaration to align member economies toward equity and sustainability. A critical barrier identified is the financing gap, with climate finance needs estimated at US$ 8.1 trillion annually from 2030, far exceeding the US$ 1.3 trillion average seen between 2021 and 2022. The authors call for a transition where nature-rich countries, particularly in the Global South, can generate wealth through biodiversity-based development models.

• Brazil has established a Bioeconomy Initiative within the G-20 structured around three pillars: science, technology and innovation; sustainable use of biodiversity; and the role of bioeconomy in promoting sustainable development.
• There is an ongoing effort to negotiate 'High-Level Principles' for the bioeconomy to be included in the Rio Declaration in November, aiming to align G-20 economies toward equity and sustainability and potentially lead to an implementation plan under South Africa's future presidency.
• A significant gap exists in climate financing: while Climate Policy Initiative estimates a need for US$ 8.1 trillion annually starting in 2030, the average annual amount between 2021 and 2022 was only US$ 1.3 trillion, representing 1% of global GDP.
• The bioeconomy is presented as a mechanism for nature-rich countries, especially in the Global South, to become wealth generators and reduce inequalities by using biodiversity as a driver for development models.
