Solarpunk Forest
A new Vision for ecological stewardship
Our globalized economy has failed to price the services provided by forest ecosystems into the global GDP
Forest ecosystems are the foundational fabric of life, integral to our existence and deeply intertwined with our survival and well-being
Today, the value of forest ecosystems is narrowly defined by the commercial worth of their timber. This limited view always leads to deforestation, undermining the vital ecological roles the forests play
The Value of a Forest
Today, Forests have little value for humans
Forests are support for all life on Earth
Forests provide invaluable services
Forest ecosystems provides invaluable services from carbon sequestration and biodiversity preservation to water purification and climate regulation. These vital services are not just ecological assets but also foundational pillars of our global economic system
We have reached a pivotal moment where forests must be recognized and integrated as rightful stakeholders in the global economic system
Many stakeholders in the current economy find themselves grappling with the same question repeatedly. They either overlook or choose to ignore the apparent answer that lies before them
Forests should be empowered to offer their services to the global economy and receive fair remuneration, just like any other valuable contributor within the global economic framework
"Why should I consider forest services worthy of remuneration when the forest is already there ?"
Our concept recognizes the invaluable ecosystem services provided by the forests aiming to translate these services into measurable economic value for stakeholders in the global economy
The answer is straight forward: forest ecosystems are the fabric of life out of which we emerged and we and our entire economy is dependent on
Forests as stakeholders in the global economy
Forests need self-representation
