Conservation and Economic Efficiency
Author: Talbot Page
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135994986
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 291
Book Description
In this book, Page addresses the range of issues that need to be considered in establishing a materials policy. They introduce the notion of equity and fairness based on John Rawls' original position, suggesting that representatives of the future would be unlikely to accept today's market allocation of virgin material extraction. This is built upon by addressing the many interrelated issues systematically. The result being a new perspective and synthesis that will be of interest to students and scholars alike.

Economics, Natural-Resource Scarcity and Development (Routledge Revivals)
Author: Edward B Barbier
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135036616
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Global warming is an increasing problem, tropical forests are being wiped out and major upper watersheds are being degraded. Using insights provided by environmentalism, ecology and thermo-dynamics, this book – first published in 1989 – outlines an economic approach to the use of natural resources and particularly to the problem of environmental degradation. Edward Barbier reviews and critiques the long past of environmental and resource economics and then goes on to elaborate an economics which allows us to develop alternative strategies for dealing with the problems faced. With examples drawn from Latin America and Indonesia, he not only develops a major theoretical advance but shows how it can be applied. Barbier’s work is an important and relevant contribution to the discussion surrounding the economics of environmental sustainability.

Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135991626
Category : Law
Languages : en

Book Description
Public land management and ownership came under increasing scrutiny in the 1980s, partly because of the increased value of federal lands; prized for their timber, minerals, energy, and amenity outputs.

For its readers, this book provides fresh insights and suggests new approaches to a problem that has been heavily discussed.
