Not the only reason, but surely one of the most effective.  Show 
individuals, and their groupings, how to make a "profit" from changing 
a use of the environment and you immediately empower them.  e.g village 
greening projects in India to large scale private tree farms in 
Australia.  My experience and observation is that governments tend 
towards protection of the old ways for a whole lot of historical 
political reasons.

Martin
