Description

Environmental and Natural Resource Economics: A Contemporary Approach (4th Edition)

Environmental issues are of fundamental importance, and a broad approach to understanding the relationship between the human economy and the natural world is essential. In a rapidly changing policy and scientific context, this edition of Environmental and Natural Resource Economics reflects an updated perspective on modern environmental topics. It provides a balanced treatment of both standard environmental economics and ecological economics, based on the belief that these two approaches are complementary.

Now in its fourth edition, the text includes updated material on climate change, the cost-competitiveness of renewable energy, global environmental trends, and sustainable economies. Readers will explore core concepts such as the theory of externalities, the management of public goods, the allocation of resources across time, environmental valuation, and cost-benefit analysis. Additionally, the book covers essential ecological economics topics, including macroeconomic scale, entropy, and “green” national accounting.

Topical chapters provide in-depth analysis on:

  • Energy and renewable resource transitions
  • Climate change and global policy
  • Water resources, forests, and fisheries management
  • Agriculture and international trade
  • Designing effective policies to promote sustainability and a “green” economy
