What is an ecosystem service? List any four important ecosystem services provided by natural ecosystems. Are you in favour or against levying a charge on the service provided by the ecosystem?

Answers (1)

The product of ecosystem processes is called ecosystem service. Following is the list of four important ecosystem service:

(a) Purification of air and water

(b) Rainfall

(c) Pollination of crops

(d) Assimilation of excess carbon

There should be no charge for ecosystem services because nature provides everything free. However, there should be proper attempts to estimate the cost of these services. Data about the costs of these services should be made available to the public. Every person should be educated about the real value of ecosystem services. This will help us in appreciating the real value of services that we get from the ecosystem.
