Global relative rate of natural capital depletion of the atmosphere, measured through temperature anomalies and emissions of non-GHG pollutants. The relative depletion rates enable the identification of hotspots of natural capital depletion (defined as the top 20% of values), where human activities will be associated with higher risks of ecosystem service loss or degradation. This will, in turn, present higher risks for financial institutions investing in these areas.<\/span><\/span><\/p>

Temperature trend values for 1990-2019 were converted to absolute values and normalised between 0 and 1. Annual emissions gridmaps (2015) for 9 non-GHG substances were normalised between 0 and 1, then summed. The combined non-GHG emissions layers was then re-scaled from 0-1, and log(x+1) transformed. The temperature anomalies and non-GHG emissions layers were summed and then re-scaled (0-1) to produce the atmosphere depletion layer.<\/span><\/span><\/p>
