The Importance of Ecosystem Services
10 mins 17 secs
Key learning objectives:
Outline the organisations aimed at preserving ecosystem services
Understand their benefits and drawbacks
Overview:
There are organisations and missions such as the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and REDD+ which aim to save species from extinction and reduce deforestation. However, they miss the bigger picture of protecting ecological processes and payment for ecosystem services. Saving a few hundred animals from extinction will mean we have still lost the ecosystem processes that nature depends on. We must provide payment for protecting ecosystems in the form of nature credits.
