What You Need to Know About Natural Asset Companies

What are Natural Asset Companies, and why did 24 states fight to stop them? In this episode of Created to Reign, David R. Legates explains how NACs would turn the ecological “value” of forests, watersheds, and other natural areas into tradable corporate assets—placing control of land use in the hands of investors rather than owners.

Proponents claim NACs unlock new money for conservation. Critics warn they threaten property rights, restrict access to land, raise food and energy prices, and open the door to globalist overreach.

Join us as we unpack why the New York Stock Exchange withdrew its proposal, why the idea isn’t dead, and what NACs could mean for the future of sovereignty and stewardship.
