This is the crux of environmental misalignment in our system. There is not actual tradeable value for environment.
Most importantly, how to set a price for a view?
In some cases we have comparison for a tourist economy where we value the benifit of a view, but intrinsically we have no way to measure the value of a:
Pristine forest
Beautiful view
Clean lake
Healthy aquifer
Free space for camping, etc.
Future worth?
