- What is the value of all contained within this picture? The ecosystems, the biodiversity, the econmies, the people. How many here would vote for invaluable? My Grandfather was in the 1906 earthquake and and drove a bakery’s horse bread wagon to take injured people to the medical areas. Today, my sister works now for the University of San Francisco. My Mom was a nurse in San Jose when silicon valley was above sea level. Before the aquifer had been over pumped and the valley subsided. Fortunately, subsidence was stopped there in the 1960s with groundwater recharge pumping, unfortunately some of that water comes from the Delta which is subsiding.
- Location,Region/District, Santa ClaraCountyGroundwater rechargeDescription: The Peninsula Open Space Trust has purchased a 357-acre property in the hills above Uvas Reservoir, south of Morgan Hill.

- I’m going to provide a two minute crash course in economics.Microeconomics.Previous to the 1930s we had microeconomics, measured households and firmsMacroeconomics. In the 1930s the great depression hit. The economy was now global and microeconomics was no longer equipped to deal with problems of those times.Incomplete, incorrect and incapable of solving the economic problems of that time.New economic goals were developed (full employment),New measures (Productivity, employment – Hoover declared depression over)New Institutions (CCC) . Macroeconomics was created to address fundamental challenges – a lack of built-capital infrastructure (roads, factories, machines) and a lack of measures such as unemployment and GDP. Applied macroeconomics was critical to helping move our nation forward. Earth EconomicsNow, once again we are on the cusp of economic paralysis. Natural capital, including the ecosystem services such as oxygen production, freshwater storage and supply, flood protection and biodiversity, are becoming more scarce. The reason for this is we are not treating our natural capital as an asset – what we don’t value is lost at great cost to the public. We need new institutions, new policies and new measurements to help secure our nation’s security and health in the future.
- There are four types of capital important to a healthy economy. We need to build alliances across the communities to be successful. Collective impact: For some reason, Natural capital is invisible. Andrea M. Built capital: traditionally measured in economics by GDP.Includes buildings, cars, levees, dams.Social capital:Includes bonds, family, rules, institutions that keep our society cohesive.Human Capital:Includes the skills and talents of every person. Natural Capital:Includes forests, wetlands, floodplains, estuaries…it’s our green infrastructure. When intact, in a healthy condition, it provides critical ecosystem services.Society invests in humans (human capital) because humans provide unique services, talents etc. back to society. Society should also invest in natural capital because it provides unique (non-substitutable) services.- Natural capital plays dual roles. It can be converted into raw material inputs essential to all economic production, or it can be left intact to provide critical ecosystem services.
- 1912 economic facts.You are the new economy.
- Take a look at the Bay Area Watershed
- America – flooding. San Francisco Bay area is no more sustainable if the services of natural systems are lost.
- San Jose Mercury News: “Who would not want to live in the Bay Area.” Attracts and retains people. How much has California, the Bay area spent on water supply infrastructure in the last 100 years, how much in the next 100 years, what portion of that was spent on the open space that actually captures and filters all that water?
- First Agency to implement ecosystem services throughout. Just in DC presenting for the Executive Office of the President.
- First Agency to implement ecosystem services throughout.
- Risks for not valuing the resources, but if we do not put a value, then is valued as zero. Valuation and rights, how they fit together. Examples: Waurani, valuation, strengthening rights in governance.
- 1912 economic facts.You are the new economy.
- SC3: we have the first ever valuation of the Bay Area of our natural capital, water, biodiversity, climate change resiliency, We are working within three counties, We have generous funding from This product can be replicable throughout the Bay Region. These are example of studies that have implications for planning, policy. Applying the SC3 Natural Capital Approach within the Bay Area. Overarching valuation. This also points the way to funding mechanisms, this is not a study for study’s sake, we need to put these tools in your hands, natural capital has to be part of our infrastructure investments.
- Lay out basically: What does the landscape provision… Who benefits…Who pays
- Thurston County: Also set out discussion.

- 1912 economic facts.You are the new economy.
- Grand Challenges and thinking from a systems perspectiveProvisioning Assets: watersheds for producing water, flood risk reduction, mother’s knowledge about health, cell phone, data center as purveyor of health informationBeneficiaries; We all benefit when we all can read, salmon restoration, flood risk reduction, drinking water, Impairments: Groundwater contamination, blight, natural or built constriction for flood risk, poor land use planning, encourages construction within the floodplain.
- Great fire. Seattle's mayor and city council called for an election to decide if the city should own and operate its own water system. That same year, the "Great Seattle Fire" of June 6, 1889 destroyed the entire 64-acre business district due to the lack of water available from the patchwork of private water suppliers.
- The cost of eradicating the last few cases of polio is tremendous, and the threat to the current 7 billion people is increadibly small, yet by eliminating polio, the benefits across future generations are tremendous. What would the world be like if small pox was as prevalent as it was 100 years ago.
