> Problem here is that developed world has destroyed it's wilderness long time ago, used that land to produce food and resources, but now we demand that others don't do the same.

So why not pay those countries to leave their wilderness wild?

It would be like saying: "You know, we really screwed up, and you guys are the only ones who have some of this precious wilderness left. We'd like to pay you to preserve it."




It would be nice, but many countries struggle to even get funding approved to help other people who are starving. Nationalism is a huge barrier.
