Eldis key issues page: Payments for Ecosystem Services (PES)
2008
The concept of Payments for Ecosystem Services (PES) - also called Payments for Environmental Services - has received substantial interest in recent years as a way of creating positive economic incentives to change human behaviour in ways that increase or maintain environmental services, such as watershed protection, the sequestration of carbon and the provision of habitat for endangered species. This key issues page provides an overview of PES schemes, their potential and possible pitfalls, and links to further reading from a range of sources.
