Putting a Price on Nature’s Bounty  

Nature is priceless — or is it?

If we put a cash price on the economic services that, say, watersheds or insects or coastal mangroves provide, would we value Nature more? Would we be prepared to change our ways of measuring wealth and economic growth? And if we did, would that slow down the extinctions and collapse of ecosystems?

These are the questions being probed by Nature, Inc., a path-breaking TV documentary series that puts a price-tag on Nature and its environmental services that we take for granted.

Nature Inc series is particularly timely during 2010 the International Year of Biodiversity. The UN-designated year is a celebration of biological diversity and its value.

Nature Inc series 1 consists of six half-hour episodes, now available in one DVD compilation.

Special Offer: The complete series of 6 programmes now available in 3-DVD pack at USD 30 + dispatch
