Another feather in the cap of the Biden administration.

Avalon - Another feather in the cap of the Biden administration. The value of natural assets has never been considered in traditional measurements of economic activity. Forests that keep hillsides from eroding and help to clean the air. Wetlands that protect coastal real estate from flooding. Rivers and deep snow that attract tourists and create jobs in rural areas. These natural assets all have economic value, which will now be taken into account thanks to Biden's new program. Liberals will applaud, as will conservatives who want government programs to be subject to cost/benefit analyses.
