Abstract
- The article reports that the values which are placed on ecosystem goods and services in some form or another, are not represented in policy, resulting in degradation of natural systems. As reported, degradation of natural systems can be stopped or minimized by creating a market so that payments are made in proportion to the provision of goods and services. It also says that there is much discussion of markets and direct payments for conservation among policy makers and these approaches are now well embedded in the policy process.
