What is The Environment Bank?
The Environment Bank company has been established to facilitate the delivery of mitigation and compensation schemes associated with planned development. National strategy and policy now requires the planning system not only to mitigate the effects of development on the natural environment, but also to deliver nature conservation enhancements. The Environment Bank Ltd provides a mechanism for creating, managing and enhancing habitats and landscapes by engaging with developers and landowners.
We work with stakeholders to design and implement on the ground bespoke mitigation strategies for the benefit of wildlife, nature conservation and people.
The Environment Bank facilitates, for example, government's vision for England as stated in the England Biodiversity Strategy for it to be 'a country - its landscapes and water bodies, coasts and seas, towns and cities - where wild species and habitats are part of healthy functioning ecosystems; where we nurture, treasure and enhance our biodiversity, and where biodiversity is a natural consideration of policies and decisions and in society as a whole'. It engages with the government's agenda of providing places to encourage health and well being of local communities.
Conservation Credits Exchange
The online Conservation Credits Exchange allows conservation groups, farmers and landowners to register their wildlife sites so as to provide ‘Conservation Credits’. These credits are then available to developers for purchase to offset their impacts on biodiversity – putting a transferable value on biodiversity loss and establishing private sector funding for the long-term management of conservation sites.
Access the Conservation Credits EXchange at https://environmentbank.mmearth.com. Register using your own email and password to become a permanent member and view available offerings, this is a free service. If you wish to submit a wildlife site to the Registry contact us admin@environmentbank.com.
