El mercado de biodiversidad: un espejismo

The document critiques the use of biodiversity offsets and certificates, asserting that these financial mechanisms allow for the destruction of nature in one area to be compensated elsewhere, thereby serving capitalist interests rather than solving the biodiversity crisis.

• Biodiversity offsets and certificates are presented as solutions to the biodiversity crisis but are characterized as market-based strategies that assign financial value to nature and normalize the idea that ecological loss in one location can be offset in another.
• The report contends that these market-based regimes are 'false solutions' driven by neoliberal economic interests focused on monetization and financialization.
