What is Natural Capital?

Natural capital refers to the natural asset base on which both business sustainability and human well-being depend. The depletion of our natural capital base poses a risk to the long-term sustainability of business operations and human welfare. Natural capital underpins our financial, economic and business systems, our social and cultural systems, and the health and well-being of human life. In short, natural capital encompasses the renewable goods (agricultural crops, forestry, fisheries, and water), non-renewable goods (minerals) and environmental services (flooding control, climate regulation, production of clean air, and crop pollination) that nature provides. Understanding and valuing natural capital provides the potential to reconcile economic, environmental, financial and social interests through development and growth.
