Use case
Sustainability reporting – CSRD and ESRS
ESRS E4 (biodiversity and ecosystems) is about reporting impacts on nature accurately and transparently. CLIMB provides baselines, change and monitoring in CU – and Biodiv makes it possible to set and track targets over time.
What CLIMB adds to E4
Frameworks such as CSRD and ESRS describe what needs to be reported. CLIMB addresses what can be measured: the baseline, change from land and infrastructure projects, and development over time – all in the same unit.
- • Clear starting values – a baseline in CU per project or site.
- • Measurable targets – group or portfolio targets that can be followed up.
- • Transparency on net effect – see losses, measures and the net result over time.
Set targets and plans with CLIMB in Biodiv
Many companies have policies and transition plans – but lack repeatable figures. In Biodiv you can link CLIMB data to internal targets and plans: baseline, scenarios, monitoring and export for reporting.
- • KPIs in CU (e.g. per MW, per km of infrastructure, per portfolio).
- • Follow-up when projects or designs change.
- • Data that complements strategy and materiality assessment – rather than replacing them.

FAQ
FAQ about CSRD, ESRS and CLIMB
Baselines, targets and monitoring in CU.
Does Biodiv replace a materiality assessment or CSRD advisory services? +
No. Biodiv provides CLIMB-based data on baselines, change, reporting and monitoring that can feed into your E4 process.
What is ESRS E4? +
E4 is the topical standard for biodiversity and ecosystems within the European Sustainability Reporting Standards, linked to CSRD.
Can we track nature positive targets with CLIMB? +
Yes, provided you have clear baselines and measurable change in CU over time. See the CLIMB method.
