19. Our greenspacesareshrinking,despiteallthebenefitstheygiveus.If wewanttosave
them,we need to value the ecosystem and health and wellbeing services they offer.Sheffield
city council's balance sheet shows its parks as a £16 m liability.Traditional accountancy
methods focus on a park's saleable value , or its operational costs associated with
maintenance.So England's 27,000 parks are considered as financial liabilities rather than the
amazing asset to our health and wellbeing that any of their 37 million regular users could
vouch for.They also deliver a range of ecosystem services such as improved air and water
quality,floodriskmitigationbyabsorbingwaterrun﹣off,andcoolingtheurbanenvironment
as well as providing much﹣needed habitat for wildlife.By using a"natural capital"accounting
approach that puts a value on all these social,environmental and economic contributions,
Sheffielddiscoveredthatforevery£1spentonitsparks,theygenerate£34ofbenefits.
Yet this true value is not widely measured or recognised.As Ian Walmsley,Stockport
council's green space manager told the Communities and Local Government select committee

built﹣up areas that suffer disproportionate cuts to park rangers and maintenance.We have been
here before.Uncared﹣for,litter﹣strewn parks were emblematic ofThatcher's Britain before an上海最大个人家教平台---【嘉惠家教】

GlobalCooperation
Inthe21stcentury,we'veseenanewtrendthatispushingtheboundariesofhumaninvention
and innovation—global cooperation.Scientific and technical research and development is now so
complicatedthatnoonescientistcanknowitall.So,increasingly,innovationiscomingfromthe
combiningofcutting﹣edgeexpertise (专业知识) fromdifferentscientificfields.
Therearenowover 8,000scientific journalsworldwideanditisimpossible tobeanexpert
inallareas.Therefore,inthishighlyspecializedworld,scientists,medicsandengineershaveto
cooperate in order to innovate.Professor Bob Langer at Massachusetts Institute of Technology
(MIT) hasmadesignificantbreakthroughsinthefieldofbiomedicalengineering.Buthehasn't
done it on his own.He has invited experts from around the world in different fields to form a
global team to design new substances which can go inside the body,deliver medicines and then
dissolve.AlsoatMIT,whenCesarHaradaheardabouttheoilspillintheGulfofMexicoin2010,
he quit his dream job there and tried to develop a more efficient way to remove the oil.But rather
than focusing on profit,he decided to 'open﹣source' the design.He shared his own ideas on the
web for free and then got experts from all around the world to contribute ideas and even
donations.Thanks to thisfree,not﹣for﹣profitway ofsharingideasandintellectualpropertyon
the internet,a boat capable of cleaning oil quickly came into being.Obviously,international
cooperation based on sharing information freely has produced innovative approaches to solving
problems.
It appears that the days of brilliant individuals working in their garages on their own are
over.Global teams with a united purpose building on everyone's expertise can collectively do far
more than one brilliant individual.Today's world calls for global cooperators,sharers,and not上海最大个人家教平台---【嘉惠家教】
