The Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA), launched by the UN in 2001, is an international work plan designed to provide decision makers and the public with scientific information about the consequences of ecosystem change for human well-being. It focuses on the benefits that people obtain from ecosystems (such as food, timber, flood protection and biodiversity) and assesses how changes might effect people in the future and what might we do at local, national and global scales to improve ecosystem management in order to promote human well-being and poverty alleviation. This document sets out the Government's reply to the Committee's report (HCP 77, session 2006-07; ISBN 9780215031822) published in January 2007, which assessed the impact of the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment in the UK and made recommendations for Government policy to address these challenges.
