Yenilikçi finansman aracı olarak ekosistem hizmetleri için ödemeler: Fırsat mı, tehdit mi?

Abstract

Orman kaynaklarının topluma sağladığı biyolojik çeşitliliği barındırma, estetik hizmetler, su ve toprak koruma, yaban hayatını barındırma gibi ekosistem hizmetlerinin üretimi için geleneksel anlamda pazar teşviki bulunmamaktadır. Son on yılda dünyada ekosistemlerin yönetiminde en popüler kavramlardan biri, ekosistem hizmetlerinin devamlılığını güvence altına almak için yenilikçi finansman araçlarını içeren, İngilizce kısaltması PES (payment for ecosystem services) olarak bilinen ekosistem hizmetleri için ödemelerdir. Ekosistem hizmetleri için ödeme programlarının habitat kullanma hakları, koruma irtifakları ve imtiyazları, korunan alanları kiralama, ticari karbon, biyolojik çeşitlilik, havza koruma kredileri gibi çeşitli türleri bulunmaktadır. Bazıları ekosistem hizmetleri için ödeme programlarını orman ekosistemlerinin korunması için kurtarıcı olarak görürken karşıt görüştekilere göre ise ekosistem hizmetleri için ödeme programları kamu mallarının ticarileştirilerek tüketilmesi için bir araç olarak yeni pazarlar yaratma yollarından biridir. Bu makalede dünya ve Türkiye ölçeğinde ekosistem hizmetleri için ödeme programlarının orman ekosistemlerinin sürdürülebilir yönetimi açısından fırsat ve tehdit oluşturduğu koşullar irdelenmiş, kullanım olanakları değerlendirilmiştir.

Payments for ecosystem services as innovative financial instruments: An opportunity or a threat?

Abstract

There is no traditional market incentive for the production of forest ecosystem services such as biodiversity conservation, aesthetic services, water and soil conservation, wildlife preservation, etc. One of the most popular concepts in the ecosystem management over the last decade has been payments for ecosystem services (PES) which include innovative financing instruments to ensure the sustainability of ecosystem services. There are various types of PES such as habitat use rights, protection easements and concessions, leases for protected areas, commercial carbon, biodiversity, watershed protection credits. Some believe that PES programs can support conservation of forest ecosystems as a savior while others, on the contrary, think that PES programs are the means to create new markets for commercialization and exploitation of public goods. In this paper, opportunities and threats to sustainable management of forest ecosystems that have been created by PES programs were examined. Finally, the possibilities of PES programs in Turkey were evaluated.
