Salesforce published its Nature Positive Strategy to share our vision and the set of actions we’re taking to contribute toward a net zero, nature positive future rooted in people and climate justice.

Salesforce’s Nature Positive Strategy is comprised of three mutually reinforcing areas of action:

1. Reduce our nature impacts. We will measure, manage, and reduce our nature impacts and dependencies.

2. Lead on nature restoration at scale. We are making innovative investments and forging partnerships to catalyze the protection and restoration of nature at scale.

3. Accelerate customer success and the nature positive movement. Our superpower is our ability to support our hundreds of thousands of customers on their net zero, nature positive journey.
