How much is an ecosystem worth? : assessing the economic value of conservation

The international community has committed itself to achieve, by 2010, a significant reduction of the current rate of biodiversity loss at the global, regional, and national levels. Yet, despite growing awareness, and major efforts in all countries, the latest evidence indicates that biodiversity continues to be lost at a terrifying pace, resulting in what some call the greatest mass extinction since dinosaurs roamed the planet, 65 million years ago. A range of methods have been developed to value ecosystems, and the services they provide, as well as the costs of conservation. The methods avail.

  • "Despite international commitments to reduce the current rate of biodiversity loss at the global, regional and national levels by 2010, recent evidence indicates that biodiversity continues to be lost at a terrifying pace. This publication, produced jointly by the World Bank, IUCN (the World Conservation Union) and the Nature Conservancy, sets out guidance on the use of economic valuation methods, which have been developed to value ecosystems and the services they provide, as well as the costs of conservation."
