The oxygen that keeps us alive comes from natural ecosystems: half on land, half at sea. It's not complicated: we are TOTALLY dependent on the living world. Yet it's still treated as nothing but 'resources', to exploit and destroy for profit.

We are a not-for-profit organisation advocating for the natural capital approach. You may wonder though, what is natural capital? Learn more in our Quick Read, "Intro to Natural Capital": 🔗 www.naturalcapitalireland.com/_files/ugd/9... View all our Quick Reads here: 🔗 www.naturalcapitalireland.com
Quick Reads: Intro to Natural Capital. Download the full text on the ‘Quick Reads’ section of www.naturalcapitalireland.com.

Natural capital frames the value that nature provides and our dependence on it in a similar way to other forms of capital – like financial.

Environmental crises are intensifying. One of the reasons is that our current economic system does not capture the social costs or benefits of nature’s services in markets. It assumes an infinite supply of natural resources and functioning ecosystems.

A common criticism of financially valuing nature’s services is that it will lead
to commoditising or privatising nature. That is not the intent, but these unintended consequences need to be taken seriously as methods and accounting systems are developed and implemented.

Heard about natural capital but not sure what it means? Natural capital helps decision-making by creating an economic metaphor for nature. It frames resources like plants, animals, water, and minerals as assets or stocks that yield a flow of benefits to us. ▶️Watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=TELw...
