This is something we really need to take on: not all value needs to be utility or monetary based. Things can have existential value, too.
Unfortunately we take the former approach with just about everything. We willingly tie our worth as a human to our work performance or some other ridiculous metric. You don’t have to be the paragon of project management, or a world famous influencer to be deemed worthy. You are worthy just because you exist.
Trees, frogs, and mosses all have inalienable rights to exist, too. Since they comprise the natural world, and actually perform functions to sustain said world, they have value. Moreso, I would argue, than an exemplar of project management, or bumping up a number on the NYSE. More value than the table we could make from the trees, or the extra bit of space we could use from destroying wetland (frog) habitat.
