Irish Forum on Natural Capital: Workshop on Corporate Natural Capital Accounting

Mar 28, 2017

How are organisations applying natural capital values to their business? How are those values informing decision-making and operations?

Join us at this practical workshop to find out how the Corporate Natural Capital Accounting (CNCA) system was used to integrate financial values for carbon sequestration and recreation, and non-financial values for biodiversity, into a natural capital asset index and balance sheets for Forest Enterprise England.
