There is certainly a great deal of difficult-to-measure wealth in healthy ecosystems that produce food and drinkable water, also in social cooperation and peace, trust in one's neighbor, etc. Our global economic system that is based on growth and limitless commons is running into hard limits. I think it's easy to tracing soaring prices to longstanding raiding on the commons. The dollar, the euro, and eventually even gold and oil will lose value against arable land, uncontaminated seafood, water-rich regions, and other things that we (as a species) have taken for granted and managed poorly for decades.
