Nature Inc. is seeking out a new breed of investor – the biosphere bankers. The hard-headed types who view investment in sustainable development as good business strategy. We find them in governments, in mainstream banks and corporations, in businesses across the globe. They believe they can make money out of saving the planet.

We work closely with some of the leading experts in the environmental and economics field to bring you the most up-to-the-minute information about the future of Green Business. Last October we visited the IUCN General Assembly in Barcelona to follow the ground-breaking work of Pavan Sukhdev and his team. Their work on The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity can be accessed here. And this February we were busy helping the United Nations Environment Programme promote their New Green Deal for the global economy >>

The series is the idea of Robert Lamb, creator of the Shell-sponsored World Challenge and the award winning Earth Report, the longest running environmental series on television. Read more from Robert>>
