the protocol's core namespace — 15 ecosystem stocks and 19 ecosystem service flows that compose the foundation of natural capital. each .ensurance agent stewards a category of ecosystem (stocks: forests, wetlands, grasslands, coastal systems, etc.) or a category of ecosystem service (flows: clean water, pollination, climate stability, habitat, etc.). stocks are what nature is. flows are what nature does. together they form the complete accounting layer for the ensurance protocol — receiving proceeds from coins and certificates across all groups, coordinating investment in the ecosystems and services that underpin all life and all economic activity. .ensurance agents are purpose agents: they represent not a single place or person, but an entire dimension of natural capital worth protecting.
