Financial capital or human capital are the foundation of all economic equations. Natural capital has never been really taken into account. However, biodiversity has a cost and a value also. Therefore, who pays and who benefits from it? What are the economics of ecosystem protection? Isn't the battle for biodiversity only an issue of power and money?
