Putting economics
at the center of environmental and social
decision-making
GREENE ECONOMICS
Our planet faces escalating man-made threats including climate change, deforestation, water scarcity and pollution. That's why it has never been more important to balance environmental protection and economic growth. We work with governments, businesses and nonprofits who want to improve environmental stewardship while maintaining robust economies and achieving the best environmental quality at the lowest cost.
The environment is where we all meet; where we all have a mutual interest; it is the one thing all of us share.
- Lady Bird Johnson
