    In 2005, the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA, 2005) provided the first comprehensive report on global ecosystems, the dependence of human societies on the services provided, current state, and likely future trajectory. The MA identified the failure to value ecosystem services as a major contributing cause. The 2001 environment strategy did not explicitly address environmental valuation, although the focus on poverty and environment implies a need for valuing natural resources and environmental services.

    Biologically diverse ecosystems in countries served by the World Bank provide an array of valuable economic services. While the benefits of conserving ecosystems frequently outweigh the costs, conversion of these ecosystems to other uses occurs anyway, because many ecosystem benefits are of a public good nature, without markets that would reflect their real value.

    Mongolia has very significant natural resources and a large part of the population is dependent on them for their daily living. The impact of the state of the environment on the living standards of herders is obvious, but also Mongolians living in the capital Ulaanbaatar have learned that air pollution, especially in winter, and other environmental problems have a deep impact on their living standards. The Government of the Netherlands has established a Trust Fund at the World Bank to support environmental activities in Mongolia.

    Conservation is often viewed as a
    tradeoff between the development of short-term benefits and
    protection for long-term benefits. However, with the
    appropriate mechanisms, it is possible to achieve both aims.
    The justification to protect parks in developing countries
    can be based on an economic rationale rather than a

    Parks and protected areas are valuable
    assets to developing nations, whether viewed as
    environmental, economic or social goods. Nevertheless, to
    date there are few examples where the full potential
    economic rent of protected areas has been captured
    efficiently or distributed effectively. This severely limits
    the capacity of developing nations to sustain their natural
    resources. In Sub-Saharan Africa the crisis is acute,
