ANNOUNCING Solutions'
Special Issue: 
Ecosystem Services Come of Age
Solutions Logo

Ecosystems are humanity's life-support systems. And the services they provide, such as carbon sequestration, flood control, water purification, and storm protection, have tremendous value 
(monetary and otherwise) to people. This special issue of Solutions explores how a new 
generation of environmentalists, from the Pacific Northwest to South Africa, is using the 
ecosystem services concept to protect both nature and people.
