Value of the biosphere

the biosphere provides us with a range of GOODS both for survival and commercial use

some of the services it provides are:

  • regulates the composition of the atmosphere
  • maintaines the health of the soil
  • regulates the water in the hydrological cycle

Gren lungs: the forests are the lungs of the biosphere, removing CO2 from the atmosphere and giving out O2 which purifies the atmosphere
