Summary
The thesis of World Resources 2005 is that income from ecosystems — what we call environmental income - can act as a fundamental stepping stone in the economic empowerment of the rural poor. This requires that the poor manage ecosystems so that they support stable productivity over time. Productive ecosystems are the basis of a sustainable income stream from nature.
