TEEB
TEEB, which stands for The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity, is a global initiative that highlights the economic value of nature’s services—like clean water, pollination, climate regulation, and crop production—that often go unnoticed. It emphasizes that healthy ecosystems are essential for human well-being and economic prosperity. By quantifying these benefits, TEEB encourages policymakers, businesses, and communities to make informed decisions that protect and sustainably manage natural environments, ensuring both ecological health and long-term economic stability.
