Overview of Behavior Value Ecosystem
1 Why Should We Monetize ES?
Many ecosystems and the services they provide are at risk.One reason is the institutional framework we use to guide decision making.Markets, policy processes, or other social mechanisms often do not take ecosystems services or their impact on human well-being into account.Ecosystem services are not fully captured in commercial markets or adequately quantified in terms that are comparable with economic services such as euros; therefore they are often given too little weight in policy decisions [1].By ensuring that projects and policy appraisals fully consider the costs and benefits of the natural environment and by highlighting much more clearly the implications for human well-being, ecosystem service valuation can provide policy with new insights [2].
Ecosystem Changes, Biodiversity Loss and Human Well-Being?

Environmental tastes: a window into how people use and perceive their environment?
We investigated whether environmental taste dimensions could serve as potential explanatory variables for environmental behaviors and opinions.Our results indicate that environmental tastes indeed have consistent and strong associations with environmental opinions and behaviors.Those individuals who reflect taste for biota engage in activities that are based on biological dimensions of the ecosystem (specifically, birding and collecting), and reflect more pro-environmental behaviors and opinions.Those who reflect a taste for landscape engage in activities that do not necessarily reflect an appreciation of biodiversity but do reflect an affinity for the combined biotic/abiotic environment (i.e., landscape).While the desert taste also correlates with other variables, there is no clear pattern or obvious explanation for the relationships.

How can companies capture the value of ecosystem strategies?
Companies can capitalize on five key value levers, in line with their value-creation agenda, and we see three archetypes emerging (Exhibit 1).
How can companies define an ecosystem strategy to fit their needs?
Leading companies are increasingly offering an interconnected set of services—from Alibaba offering a broad ecosystem of lifestyle services (including retail, payments, credit scoring),

How Do Natural Ecosystems Work?
Natural ecosystems are “balanced” systems.This means the interactions between the different organisms that make up the ecosystem contribute to a certain stability.For example, in grassland ecosystems, herbivores consume grass, but also feed the soil with their droppings, which allows the grass to grow back and allows some sort of balance.Still, this doesn’t mean an ecosystem, even a healthy one, is static.In reality, ecosystems are constantly evolving as they are based on dynamic processes that are constantly changing.
How Does Energy Flow In An Ecosystem?
According to the law of energy conservation, energy can neither be created nor destroyed.In fact, it can only be transformed or transferred from one form to another.But how does this work in an ecosystem? How does energy flow here? Let’s watch this video to better understand this phenomenon.

What Are The Ecosystem Services?
According to FAO, ecosystem services, worth USD $125 trillion, “make human life possible by, for instance, providing nutritious food and clean water, regulating disease and climate, supporting the pollination of crops and soil formation, and providing recreational, cultural and spiritual benefits.
What core capabilities do companies need to create value in an ecosystem?
We observe six core capabilities among successful ecosystem players (Exhibit 2).
What Is a Business Ecosystem?
A business ecosystem is the network of organizations—including suppliers, distributors, customers, competitors, government agencies, and so on—involved in the delivery of a specific product or service through both competition and cooperation.The idea is that each entity in the ecosystem affects and is affected by the others, creating a constantly evolving relationship in which each entity must be flexible and adaptable in order to survive as in a biological ecosystem.
What Is Biodiversity?
Biodiversity includes not only species we consider rare, threatened, or endangered but also every living thing—from humans to organisms we know little about, such as microbes, fungi, and invertebrates.
What Is The Value of a Business Ecosystem?
We all know that the key success factors for companies have fundamentally changed.
Why Are Humans Affecting Ecosystems?
There is no straight-forward answer to this question.But human activities have impacts that aren’t instantaneously noticed.This means the visual impact of these effects isn’t there most of the time.As well, the ecological capital is hard to measure.
Why Is Biodiversity Important?
Biodiversity is important to most aspects of our lives.We value biodiversity for many reasons, some utilitarian, some intrinsic.This means we value biodiversity both for what it provides to humans, and for the value it has in its own right.Utilitarian values include the many basic needs humans obtain from biodiversity such as food, fuel, shelter, and medicine.Further, ecosystems provide crucial services such as pollination, seed dispersal, climate regulation, water purification, nutrient cycling, and control of agricultural pests.Biodiversity also holds value for potential benefits not yet recognized, such as new medicines and other possible unknown services.Biodiversity has cultural value to humans as well, for spiritual or religious reasons for instance.The intrinsic value of biodiversity refers to its inherent worth, which is independent of its value to anyone or anything else.This is more of a philosophical concept, which can be thought of as the inalienable right to exist.Finally, the value of biodiversity can also be understood through the lens of the relationships we form and strive for with each other and the rest of nature.We may value biodiversity because of how it shapes who we are, our relationships to each other, and social norms.These relational values are part of peoples’ individual or collective sense of wellbeing, responsibility for, and connection with the environment.The different values placed on biodiversity are important because they can influence the conservation decisions people make every day.
Why Is Preserving Ecosystems Important?
Like all other living beings, humans are dependant on natural ecosystem services to survive.We need it to get the food we eat, the water we drink and to transform raw materials into our everyday products.So in order to keep our living conditions, it’s truly important that we preserve natural ecosystems.
