The primary function of ecosystem services is to maintain and enhance the health and well-being of both the environment and human societies. These services can be classified into four main categories: provisioning (e.g., providing food and water), regulating (e.g., climate regulation and flood control), supporting (e.g., nutrient cycling and soil formation), and cultural (e.g., recreational and spiritual benefits). By understanding and valuing these services, we can make informed decisions that protect and restore ecosystems, ensuring their ability to support life remains intact for future generations. Ultimately, these ecosystems contribute to human wellbeing and the planet's health.
