Summary: | Ecosystem services contribute to human welfare much more than economic activities of mankind themselves. Atmospheric gas composition and climate regulation, soil fertility, nutrient cycling, waste treatment, water purification and supply, and a source of genes in organisms as well as cultural and recreation enjoyment, all represents irreplaceable conditions for the existence of current human societies. At the same time, the large and growing global human population and demands of each human being, clearly induce deterioration of both the composition - even to large-scale extinctions of organisms - and functions of biomes although these are essential to ensure the continuation of these essential services.(In Czech, English summary only) |
