Problem

Undervaluation of nature in planning and decision making

Nature:

Although there is growing awareness of the many benefits of wild species, ecosystems and protected areas, concrete information about their full economic value is scarce. The economic tools for the accounting of natural values are poorly developed. The practice of ignoring, discounting and undervaluing natural resources persists in governmental planning and decision making.
