"Big Ideas Into Action" is the relaunched podcast from the World Resources Institute, bringing you the big ideas that combat the world's most pressing environmental and developmental challenges. You'll hear the voices of those meeting the challenges on the ground across the globe and find out about the way we're finding the answers and translating them into action. We'll be podcasting in series of six to eight at a time, once a week, with occasional special episodes to add our insights and analysis in response to big events. The World Resources Institute works around the globe to turn big ideas into action at the nexus of environment, economic opportunity, and human well-being. We focus on seven urgent global challenges that must be addressed to reduce poverty, grow economies and protect natural systems: climate change, energy, food, forests, water, cities, and the ocean.

Nature-Based Solutions for Enhancing Climate Resilience: Data Drives Impact
Tuesday, 7 January, 2025
Measuring the impact of nature-based solutions (NBS) interventions takes consistent ground-level data alongside independent, verifiable, satellite-based data. When collected together, the door opens for more private sector investment, helping to close the nature finance gap that’s at least $700 billion large. We bring you examples from Bangladesh and India to explore how projects are enticing more resources through the capture and use of remote sensing data. Episode Guests include: - Paulina Villalpando, Associate Director for Nature, HSBC - Fred Stolle, Land & Carbon Lab Director of Impact, WRI - Dipak Zade, Social Sciences Thematic Lead, WOTR - Tapas Ranjan Chakrabotry, Climate Change Senior Programme Manager, BRAC
