THE ECONOMIC COST OF BIODIVERSITY

Today I saw a article in a national newapaper about the conclusion of a survey about a ranking of environement sustentability around the diferent countries in the world.How the people and comunities take care or not of forest,water natural resources as lakes,rivers,glaciers also wild fauna and native flora.The results.Cuba is in first place in care of environement,many countries of South American also are well ranked.But USA,Sweden,Norway and many industrial countries are in bad places.The problem is in ONU by example are not a world auhority in charge of regulate and care the air,the earth,the clima the plants,the animals and the people who lives inside the planet?.Kioto protocol?How many developed countries had not yet sign?Reasons,monetary short reasons.But what is the economic cost of biodiversity?What is the economic lost of a specimen lost?And is not one are many.
We lost ice in North area as glaciers in Groenland,if temperature rise a few Celsius in long term we lost not only some biodiversity on sea ,also is posible to loose earth in many countries.Some people said that this is a natural proces and always in the earth history we had changes of clima and biodiversity.But now is a new paradigm.We are helping to desgradate our nature with polution.He question is if we have high tecnologies why the wealth countries make a erroneus economical policies
with a short point of view like a old king of France that before the French Revolution said;"Apres de moi,le deluge".
