Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Regenerative Finance does not start from the top, but from the bottom. It builds communities of like-minded stakeholders, reduces risks, shares commitments, and finally, if needed, seeks outside investors.

The Bottom Line: Nature Towns provide the highest quality of life at the lowest cost

Almost 70% of the total benefits accrue directly to individual homeowners, with most of the rest benefiting the whole NT community; and 57% of the total benefits come in the form of social benefits to homeowners.

Going Green Pays!

Most importantly to some, over $1,500/year in financial benefits accrues directly to homeowners, exceeding Municipal Utility District fees for the green infrastructure. Going green pays off!

Better Health and More Fun

In the financial impact category over 40 years, a Nature Town will save more than $30 million in capital expenditures and $70 million on electricity costs, among other things. Most of the benefits from reduced VMT as listed above accrue to the social category and total almost $500 million. Other social benefits include improved indoor environmental quality resulting in increased productivity and reduced absenteeism, to the tune of $120 million. Furthermore, this design increases recreational value and public health through exercise and a reduced urban heat island effect. 

Environmental benefits add up to $130 million. These include improved water quality due to less road runoff and holistically managed greens; reduced noise and air pollution and lower carbon emissions from reduced VMT; reduced carbon and air pollution from lower overall energy use; reduced carbon emissions and air pollution due to increased vegetation; and increased biodiversity and pollination.

Combined financial, social and environmental benefits total over $850,000,000. Some of these benefits accrue to homeowners, some to the NT community as a whole, and some, such as the reduction in risk of accidents, also benefit the community at large outside of the Nature Town.
