What does “scale” really mean when you’re talking about saving the planet?

For Carl Atkin-House — Head of Natural Capital Strategy at Climate Asset Management — it’s projects measured in tens of millions of dollars and thousands of hectares. Regenerative agriculture. Sustainable forestry. Environmental assets that prove nature can deliver institutional-grade returns.

In this conversation, we go deep into the billion-dollar frontier of natural capital: where finance meets farmland, and impact has to perform at scale.

Carl doesn’t deal in pilots or press releases — he deals in transformation. From Australia to the Pacific Northwest to the UK’s fragmented landscape, he’s building proof that investing in nature isn’t philanthropy — it’s strategy.

We talk scalability, risk, regulation, and why natural capital could become the next major asset class — the one that defines the next decade of institutional portfolios.

This isn’t a theory of change. It’s a business plan for the planet.
