  • Summary

  • With the effects of climate change permeating through more layers of society, and natural resources growing scarcer - the concept of natural asset companies, a new investment model that ties environmental preservation to economic growth, is catching on.

    Such companies monetise natural ecosystems, providing investors an avenue to fund initiatives that protect and restore biodiversity, water resources, and carbon sinks while also generating financial returns.

    But, how much are shares in nature worth, and can they achieve their financial and ecological goals?

    On this episode of Eco Money, David Simpson, Senior Professorial Lecturer for Environment, Development & Health and Environmental and Resource Economist at the American University shares his insights.
