Abstract: Environmental valuation has been critical in helping to accord the natural resources the right treatment and care so as to enable their sustainability. Natural resource utilization requires in depth understanding so as not to be focused only on their face value. We have been interacting and utilizing environmental resources like forest ecosystems but may be most of us have been looking at their instrumental value. There are many things that are hidden to use which can help us have a changed attitude on how we relate and utilize these resources. Previous scholars have noted that our development activities always turn to be the major threat to the environment. For instance, as a result of urbanization and industrialization, the environment together with its natural resources have been degraded.
