Abstract
Biological diversity is the foundation of all human societies and a prerequisite for sustainable economic development. This fact is amply demonstrated by the ongoing global study on “The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity” (TEEB). TEEB also shows that the cost of sustaining biodiversity and ecosystem services is lower than the cost of allowing the further deterioration of biodiversity and ecosystem services Nevertheless, and despite the concerted efforts of the international community to protect biodiversity and the provision of corresponding ecosystem services, biodiversity loss continues to occur at an unprecedented rate. On a global scale, we are falling short of our goals to reduce and eventually halt the rate of biodiversity loss.
