The Horizon Trade-Off

Short-term strategies (3 years) yield $15.7M in financial returns, but create limited societal value. Long-term strategies (20 years) reach $50.3M while generating 2.5× more societal benefit. PSC transcends this trade-off by deploying $89.1M cumulatively—no extractive returns required, just perpetual regeneration.
