The economics of ecosystems and biodiversity: report for business [1]

The TEEB Report for Business highlights the business case for biodiversity and ecosystems services (BES) by illustrating the importance and immense value of natural services provided to, and affected by, a wide range of industries. The report identifies the direct drivers of biodiversity loss, including habitat loss and degradation, climate change, pollution, over-exploitation and the spread of invasive species. It adds that projections of the impacts of climate change, in particular, show continuing changes in the distribution and abundance of species and habitats, resulting in increasing species extinction. It further provides that biodiversity loss cannot be seen in isolation from other trends, such as climate change, increasing scarcity of natural resources and/or declining quality of ecosystem services.
