The Natural Capital Finance Alliance (NCFA) is the former name of a partnership between Global Canopy, the UN Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI), and the UN Environment Programme World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC), now called the Encore Partnership. Together, they developed a free online tool to help organizations understand their environmental impacts—ENCORE.

Date of signing: 16 February 2012

“The vast stock of natural capital on which human life depends – air, water, minerals, oil, fisheries, forests and rainforests, grasslands, wetlands, oceans – is deteriorating at an unprecedented rate. In fact, all of earth’s basic life-support systems are in serious and accelerating decline while global population has just surpassed the 7 billion mark. Over the next decades, it will be necessary for market capitalism to undergo a Sustainability Revolution equal in significance to the Industrial Revolution that ushered in the modern period. For this to happen, our financial system must dramatically change, and I hope the Natural Capital Declaration can be a catalyst for such change.”
