This publication explains how ADB's Environment Action Plan 2024–2030 (EAP) guides its strategic approach to tackling the triple planetary threats of biodiversity loss, pollution, and climate change to better support sustainable development in Asia and the Pacific. With over 50% of the region's economy directly dependent on nature, the publication shows how EAP's approach revolves around biodiversity and ecosystem management, pollution control and circular economy, and nature-based climate solutions. Outlining the need for a holistic approach, it details how ADB can step up nature-positive investments, harness digital technologies, and mainstream environmental considerations to improve livelihoods and help drive growth.
