Priceless.

Down to the fine grain.

It's like I almost can't even ask the question, but I don't know.

No, no.

That's a conversation you have?

That's what we're asked.

Particularly, you know, I work for the World Bank, so our primary clients are our governments.

And when you're talking to a minister of finance and saying, you know what... I know jobs are jobs, but you need those marshes.

They'll say, well, yeah, that's true, but that means I'm going to have to reduce the money that I put into the education budget.

So you've got to really make a strong argument about the benefits.

That's really where the rubber hits the road.

On the other hand, I want to say, and this is based on my experience working in developing countries, that when you don't put a value on these services, basically they don't get counted.

There are irreversibilities.

This is one of the differences between nature, ecosystems, and what we produce.

Or wander the desert, uncover a hidden well, and dive to the bottom of the deepest waterhole for 2,000 miles?
