Natural Capital
Assessing, valuing, and restoring natural resources
We¡¯re giving clients the specific tools and design strategies they need to unlock value hidden within their assets. Our goal? To cost-effectively achieve corporate metrics, enhance corporate stewardship reputation, demonstrate sustainability, preserve social license to operate, and increase value to shareholders.
Our Natural Capital program reflects deep and broad experience and expertise in assessing, valuing, preserving, and restoring natural resources. These professional services naturally fit with the on-the-ground restoration expertise afforded by Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s ecosystem restoration program. We work across many Â鶹ÊÓƵ business lines (water, buildings, transportation, energy, industrial, etc.), providing customized service to both internal and external clientele. As many of Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s Natural Capital clients are confidential, we take special care to respect that confidentiality.
Maximizing the value of your natural assets
Natural capital is defined as the world¡¯s renewable and nonrenewable resources that provide a flow of goods and service to all living things. Â鶹ÊÓƵ integrates natural capital into project decision-making to identify economies of scale to increase sustainability, enhance and restore valuable ecosystem services, reduce tax and environmental liabilities, protect biodiversity, increase carbon sequestration, and minimize unnecessary environmental impacts, contributing to quality of life.

While the NRDA process has evolved dramatically, our approach has remained constant¡ªwe pride ourselves on being at the forefront of NRDA over the past decade. Our staff has worked in nearly every marine, freshwater, and terrestrial environment, and maintain legally and scientifically defensible standards and confidentiality while resolving natural resource liability.
