Question Id: E4-5_04
The preliminary studies of the Group biodiversity strategy showed that one of the main drivers of biodiversity loss, according to the 2019 IPBES report, is the change in land use. It also showed that real estate companies play a major role in this driver due to the artificialisation, degradation and fragmentation of land operated in greenfield projects.
