DESCRIPTION:Natural capital is everything nature provides us for free. It 
 comprises renewables and non-renewables. Renewables carry on providing val
 ue for ever\, as long as thresholds are not crossed\, whereas non-renewabl
 es can only be used once. Natural capital policy requires compensation for
  damage\, pollution taxes and the economic rents from depleting non-renewa
 bles to be deployed for a major restoration programme\, underpinning susta
 inable economic growth. The seminar sets out the aggregate natural capital
  rules\, the identification of assets-at-risk and how to protect the natur
 al environment in the face of major population growth and  infrastructure 
 developments.\n\nThe talk is based on Prof Helm’s most recent book – N
 atural Capital: Valuing the planet – published in May 2015.\n\nDieter He
 lm is an economist specialising in utilities\, infrastructure\, regulation
  and the environment\, and concentrating on the energy\, water\, communica
 tions and transport sectors primarily in Britain and Europe. He is a Profe
 ssor at the University of Oxford a Fellow of New College\, Oxford\, and a 
 Professorial Research Fellow of the Smith School of Enterprise and the Env
 ironment.\nSpeakers:\nProf. Dieter Helm (University of Oxford)
