Institute for Environmental Studies (IVM), Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam, Netherlands Nature-based solutions (NBS) provide a promising means to a climate resilient future. To guide investments in NBS, stated preference studies have become a common tool to evaluate the benefits of NBS in developing countries. Due to subsistence lifestyles and generally lower incomes, SP studies in developing countries increasingly use time payments as an alternative to the traditionally implemented money payments. It remains unclear, however, how time values should be converted into money values, how the payment affects willingness to pay (WTP) estimates, and how this influence varies across settings with different levels of market integration. We compare the results of choice experiments that use either time or money payments and that are implemented in urban and rural Ghana. The choice experiments target to value different NBS aimed at erosion prevention and other ecosystem service benefits a ....
1 min de lectura Incluso así, está claro que, si queremos alimentar a la creciente población humana, que depende de la proteína animal, tendremos que apelar en gran medida de la acuicultura industrial. Los principales grupos ambientalistas han abrazado esta idea. En un informe de 2019, Nature Conservancy pedía más inversiones en piscifactorías, argumentando que para 2050 la industria debería convertirse en nuestra principal fuente de productos del mar. Muchos conservacionistas dicen que la piscicultura se puede hacer aún más sostenible mediante una supervisión más estricta, métodos mejorados para el compostaje de residuos y nuevas tecnologías para recircular el agua en piscinas terrestres.

Leading environmental groups have embraced this idea. In a 2019 report, the Nature Conservancy called for more investment in fish farms, arguing that by 2050 the industry should become our primary source of seafood. Many conservationists say that fish farming can be made even more sustainable with tighter oversight, improved methods for composting waste, and new technologies for recirculating the water in on-land pools. Some have pushed for aquaculture farms to be located farther from shore in deeper waters with faster and more diluting currents. ....
China promised Gambia its fishmeal plants would provide employment and infrastructure. But these take local fish from the sea to feed farmed fish back in China, and the environmental cost is high. ....
