Research on the Legal System of Payment for Ecosystem Services Under the Global Perspective

Qi SUN

Abstract


In this paper, we will be evaluating and justifying a theoretical basis for the legal system and government to fund ecosystem services through a comprehensive elaboration. The four areas that would benefit would be：aspects of watershed environmental services, biodiversity services, nature reserves services and carbon trading. This evaluation will explain and determine that Natural Resources and Ecological Services are both self-sustainable in the long run. This will be a possibility only if the laws are quickly formulated and regulations are put in place.
