<br>
Below is an invitation to watch a webinar with Ralph Chami, an economist who is working on valuing nature alongside our chairman Ian Redmond. Currently the work is based on whales and elephants, but there is exciting scope to expand this thinking into other
species. It will be about 40 minutes, and includes a Q&A.<br>

Abstract: The sustainability of our economic system and our own well-being are very much dependent on the sustainability of our ecosystems. For the longest time, humans have assumed that they are separate from the natural world and that nature provides infinite
commodities. These two assumptions helped fuel the industrial revolution, but at the same time, resulted in the abuse of nature and in the climate crisis. We need a new paradigm, a new way of thinking which recognizes that humans are part of the natural world
and that nature is a finite input into our lives and livelihood. This realization—of the value of nature—allows us to develop a framework for natural capital valuation that also directly addresses the fundamental collective action problem in environmental
protection. In this webinar, I will highlight how our valuation framework uses the lessons of financial and behavioral economics to create values that individual decision makers find credible and relatable, in addition to stimulating excitement or concern
that is essential to prompting action around environmental issues. I will provide examples of ecosystem services valuation which include carbon sequestration services provided by whales, non-cetaceans, and forest elephants of Africa. The values of carbon sequestration
flow for individual members of these species are significant: $1.75 million per forest elephant, and an average of $2 million per whale. I will then discuss how to apply this financial framework to create markets for living forest elephants in Gabon, which
will attract private sector in partnership with the public one, and help create employment opportunities for local communities. Finally, I will sketch how we can build a new economy that has a living nature at its core, which will ensure a sustainable, inclusive
and nature-friendly economic growth.
