As environmental markets emerge to capture the inherent value of ecosystem assets and services, it’s essential for decision makers to understand their choices — and how they affect the social, environmental, and economic benefits associated with an ecosystem asset. We’re ready to lead that process, with a team of national and international leaders in ecosystem service valuation strategies and environmental liability management who’ve worked in more than 35 U.S. states and 15 countries. We guide clients on the best response to issues that have natural-resource implications and develop solutions to environmental challenges that deliver long-term value — taking into account both ecological and socioeconomic valuation. 

The quantification of ecosystem service flows helps our clients to document & understand the following, with the goal of successful management of liabilities and assets: 

• Environmental & monetary cost-benefit trade-offs associated with an action
• Utilizing ecosystem service values to evaluate a parcel of property (for environmental or land conservation stewardship, repurposing)
• Compare monetary and ecosystem benefits/costs between actions with 

NEBA-CA (such as offshore oil/gas/wind commissioning and decommissioning, site remedial alternative identification, and NRDA) 

Whether your company is facing a major environmental response event, or you are looking to generate goodwill out of an underutilized property, our experts can compare numerous competing cost/benefit scenarios that empower you to choose the path that best balances financial, social, and environmental health while managing site risks.
