The concept of ecosystem services is helpful in understanding the links between human well-being and ecosystems. This is based on making a distinction between the ecosystem interactions that give rise to a flow of benefits, such as soil stabilization and pollination, and a particular aspect of human well-being, such as food security.
A number of recent reports, such as the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment and The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity (TEEB), have highlighted the declining capacity of ecosystems to sustain ecosystem services, increasing risks to future human wellbeing.
