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 Â鶹´«Ã½ in assessing, valuing, preserving, and restoring natural resources. These professional services naturally fit with the on-the-ground restoration Â鶹´«Ã½ afforded by Â鶹´«Ã½¡¯s ecosystem restoration program. We work across many Â鶹´«Ã½ business lines (water, buildings, transportation, energy, industrial, etc.), providing customized service to both internal and external clientele. As many of Â鶹´«Ã½¡¯s Natural Capital clients are confidential, we take special care to respect that confidentiality.
