Land attributes captured ES quantification and valuation Strategic and Tactical Impact

Ecosystem Services Identification and Inventory

•Help non-ecologist measure ecosystem services rapidly and cost effectively

•Provide scientifically robust quantification of ecosystem services at a site scale

•Provide simple gross assessments of ecosystem services

•Provide results in the format of engineering units

•Help decision makers determine the value of nature, and the consequences of

decisions pertaining to changes of natural habitats

•Knowledge and education building

Thank you !

By examining the environment through the framework of ecosystem

services, it becomes much easier to identify how changes in

ecosystems influence Dow’s natural assets and to provide information in

a form that decision-makers can weigh alongside other economic

information.
