Natural Capital Accounting

Natural Capital Accounting is a method used to measure and value the Earth's natural resources, like forests, water, and soil, and their role in supporting life and the economy. This approach helps governments and businesses recognize the importance of nature in their decision-making processes. By quantifying the benefits provided by ecosystems, such as clean air and biodiversity, Natural Capital Accounting aims to promote sustainable practices, ensuring that natural assets are preserved for future generations while balancing economic development with environmental health.
