“…The academic setting of the study therefore effectively restricted the potential impact of the ecosystem service assessments conducted. Ruckelshaus et al (2015) proposed a framework for detailing the ways through which biodiversity and ecosystem service information can successfully have impact by informing decisions and creating change in real-world situations. They identified four pathways and levels of impact (i) conduct research (ii) change perspective (iii) generated action and (iv) produce outcomes.…”

“…This finding highlights the need for a strategic approach to ES and for the inclusion of explicit ES-related objectives in urban plans, an aspect still mostly neglected in current planning documents (Cortinovis and Geneletti 2018). Simply providing ES knowledge as part of the information base for urban plans is not enough to guarantee that it is used to guide decisions, if it is not perceived as relevant to the problem at stake (Cash et al 2003, Saarikoski et al 2016. Formulating objectives and targets for ES provision helps to identify the values against which the effectiveness of planning actions should be measured, hence also to clarify the possible role(s) of ES knowledge within the process.…”

“…The use of ES knowledge to assess alternative scenarios poses specific requirements to ES assessments. First, appropriate indicators for measuring the expected outcomes of planning actions in terms of changes in human well-being must be identified, which is still a challenge for ES science (Ruckelshaus et al 2015). Second, while most ES assessments focus on the supply of a single ES , evaluating planning scenarios requires assessing the consequences of planning interventions on both the supply and the demand of multiple ES, addressing potential trade-offs between different ES and competing land uses (Kain et al 2016, Sanon et al 2012, Woodruff and BenDor 2016.…”

“…For this purpose, a corresponding further development of ecological planning approaches, environmental and welfare balancing, financial and subsidy policy in the context of the value discussion, and the comparison of alternatives are needed (Grunewald and Bastian 2015). While these evaluations may not constitute any patent recipes, they may nonetheless contribute to overcoming the lack of an economic perception of nature that has often lead to mistaken political and economic decisions and ultimately to the destruction of nature, ecosystems, and biological diversity, and will continue to do so in the future (Ruckelshaus et al 2013).…”
