About this book

Natural Capital is a thought-provoking book by economist Dieter Helm. Helm’s central argument is that nature gives us natural capital for free. This includes renewable resources, such as species that continue to exist unless we drive them to extinction, and non-renewable resources, like oil and gas, which can only be used once.

About the author

Dieter Helm

Dieter Helm works at the intersection of energy policy, environmental protection, infrastructure, and public finance. Natural Capital argues that economies should treat ecosystems and resources as productive assets rather than invisible gifts with no place on a balance sheet. Yale University Press issued Natural Capital: Valuing the Planet in 2015.
