The TCF GreenStandard Certification Program is a system that allows us to evaluate and quantify the True Value of nature by incorporating provisioning services, regulatory, supporting, and cultural services - as well as less tangible things like altruistic and intrinsic value.
Our solution is to create a system where we can pair stewards of biodiversity rich areas with those who have a large impact on the environment, whether that be individuals, small businesses, corporations, or government agencies. To do that we have created a system in which we connect both those who are on the front-lines of conservation but who often don't have the incentive or resources to protect nature, with those in developed countries that have an outsized impact on resource consumption and a relatively large ecological footprint.
