Nature is priceless which iswhy turning it into lsquonaturalcapitalrsquo is wrongBy Dr Bram Buumlscher and Dr Robert Fletcher
Summary An increasingly popular line of argument is that byturning nature into capital it is possible to reconcile acapitalist growth economy with conservation In thisway proponents assert conservation can beexpressed in a language that economists policy-makers and CEOs understand
The authors of this blog argue that this strategy is notjust self-defeating but that it is a dangerous illusionthat will not only worsen but also legitimate theenvironmental crisis and that most of those at thehelm of the current economic system must see thatnatural capital is illusory
The authors ask a number of questions regarding thetype of economy we might want to consider instead Read the blog here

Nature is priceless which iswhy turning it into lsquonaturalcapitalrsquo is wrongBy Dr Bram Buumlscher and Dr Robert Fletcher
Summary An increasingly popular line of argument is that byturning nature into capital it is possible to reconcile acapitalist growth economy with conservation In thisway proponents assert conservation can beexpressed in a language that economists policy-makers and CEOs understand
The authors of this blog argue that this strategy is notjust self-defeating but that it is a dangerous illusionthat will not only worsen but also legitimate theenvironmental crisis and that most of those at thehelm of the current economic system must see thatnatural capital is illusory
The authors ask a number of questions regarding thetype of economy we might want to consider instead Read the blog here

Nature is priceless which iswhy turning it into lsquonaturalcapitalrsquo is wrongBy Dr Bram Buumlscher and Dr Robert Fletcher
Summary An increasingly popular line of argument is that byturning nature into capital it is possible to reconcile acapitalist growth economy with conservation In thisway proponents assert conservation can beexpressed in a language that economists policy-makers and CEOs understand
The authors of this blog argue that this strategy is notjust self-defeating but that it is a dangerous illusionthat will not only worsen but also legitimate theenvironmental crisis and that most of those at thehelm of the current economic system must see thatnatural capital is illusory
The authors ask a number of questions regarding thetype of economy we might want to consider instead Read the blog here
