The MCA is pleased to partner with CRC TiME and support innovative research, including Natural Capital Accounting. This research is an important step in developing new tools to support better nature-based decision making for business, government and the community.
PUBLICATION ALERT: A new suite of resources released today will help build capability, systems, data and knowledge to implement Natural Capital Accounting in the mining industry. Natural Capital Accounting is a way of accounting for impacts on nature over the life of projects. The resources suite includes: - A business case, gap analysis and roadmap for implementation - Practical guidance - Case study report - Forecasting study. We were proud to lead the project with partner CSIRO, with input from the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water - who initiated the project. We'll share more about the project, partners and findings over the next few weeks. In the meantime, check out the reports here: https://lnkd.in/gQ4DgqvP
