What is the cost of nature?

If this question has ever happened to you, here are some answers. According to the data collected by the magazine Ecologia, damage to nature, in addition to its influence on the planet, generate extraordinary economic losses. Knowing the cost of each environmental skill is not simple, but they dare to provide average data.

Lions at Amboseli National Park in Kenya are very profitable. Each lion generates an economic income of 3 million pesetas.

For example, the material damage caused by the Chernobyl nuclear accident has so far cost $350,000 million, forcing Ukraine to allocate around 11% of its Gross Domestic Product (GDP) annually.

On the other hand, the economic cost of traffic problems in our cities in the European Union amounts to 18 billion pesetas, energy and fuel costs must be added to losses in working time or damage to infrastructure. If the damage is repaired, we find it quite expensive. Its cost is high, but its value remains higher.
