Ecosystem Services isn't a Self-Standing Solution to Ecospheric Degradation

Ecosystem services isn't a self-standing solution to ecospheric degradation. I suppose the ecosystem services approach could provide particular answers to particular 'stakeholders' (better to be the stake owner) by making surveys and quantifying conditions of a given eco-service. That doesn't mean that the ecosystem services approach is a comprehensive environmental policy that would correct degradation of the planetary ecosphere.

Maybe there is some kind of law of diminishing returns that is applicable to ecosystem services management approaches to conservation. Expecting the ecosphere to repair itself through continuing social interaction with it doesn't seem reasonable. Instead society converts everything into marketable mass with a UPC on it. That is degenerative in regard to the wild ecosphere rather than restorative.

If people utilize ecosystem services approaches to environmental restoration they should be aware that the method outside of a comprehensive planetary restoration plan of the ecosphere will not necessarily be weighted to benefit the environment for-itself so much as the 'stakeholders' or players interested in the service. Ecosystem services exemplified in this course do seem to be tailored to fit a capitalist economy, and capitalism itself is in dire need of correction and direction within a green objective regulatory paradigm.

Regulation of capitalism would let free enterprise solve ecological problems in the regulated paradigms for restoration or not net loss of ecosphere minimally. Free enterprise can best solve challenge-response Toynbee/Skinnerian criteria selecting from possible economic methods that could work to restore the planetary ecosphere. Ecosystem services analysis might be used to develop tax and business plan criteria with incentives for optimal use plans/bids in competition in the governed, directed, regulated free enterprise and limited capital paradigm (there would be a cap on the accumulation of wealth by individuals or networks at a low percent of national wealth).
