•  Biodiversity and ecosystem services (BES or “natural capital”) have
   significant economic value, even if it is sometimes intangible

•  Environmental damage is widespread, accelerating, costly and
   unjust (especially to the poor and to future generations)

•  Environmental values and damages are economically “invisible” due
   to externalities, missing property rights, lack of information, etc

•  Reliable methods are available and increasingly used to measure
   environmental values in economic / monetary terms, at all levels

•  Market-based instruments are available and increasingly used by
   governments to “internalize” the value of nature in economic policy
   and public investment

•  Practical tools are available and increasingly used by companies to
   “mainstream” the value of nature in business strategy and operations

                                                                27 September 2012 - 2

Why are we doing this?	
  


•  Beef and Sugar: The second biggest threat to the Great Barrier
   Reef is agricultural run-off (Great Barrier Reef Marine Park
   Authority, 2009)

•  Forests: 9% of forest product imports to Australia have been linked
   to illegal logging (Jaakko Pöyry Consulting, 2005)

•  Palm Oil: Palm oil plantations are the primary cause of permanent
   rainforest loss in Malaysia and Indonesia (UNEP, 2007)

•  Seafood: 32% of the world's fish stocks are overexploited, depleted
   or recovering (FAO, 2010)

“We therefore call upon governments to ...

•  Require companies to disclose the nature of their dependence and
   impact on Natural Capital through transparent qualitative and
   quantitative reporting”

    The Economics ofEcosystems and Biodiversity (TEEB) www.teebweb.org

      TEEB on a T-shirt (almost) •  Biodiversity and ecosystem services (BES or “natural capital”) have significant economic value, even if it is sometimes intangible •  Environmental damage is widespread, accelerating, costly and unjust (especially to the poor and to future generations) •  Environmental values and damages are economically “invisible” due to externalities, missing property rights, lack of information, etc •  Reliable methods are available and increasingly used to measure environmental values in economic / monetary terms, at all levels •  Market-based instruments are available and increasingly used by governments to “internalize” the value of nature in economic policy and public investment •  Practical tools are available and increasingly used by companies to “mainstream” the value of nature in business strategy and operations 27 September 2012 - 2
