taken for granted and theref¬ore not valued in money. Examples are microorganism’s release of nutrients, their degradation of pollutants in air, soil and water, pollination of insects and vegetation, and water-regulating effects. Knowledge of the importance of different species and interaction works and what disappearances that can disrupt ecological processes is still inadequate. Here follows four direct drivers of change that poses the most significant threats to the ecosystem services. Biological
