The Welfare Economics of Alternative Renewable Resource Strategies

Forested Wetlands and Agricultural Production

By: Robert N. Stavins

This study, originally published in 1990, seeks to address several important policy questions associated with the ongoing depletion of forested wetlands. First, in the context of Environmental Impact Statements, should the estimated areas of impact of Federal flood-control and drainage projects on wetlands be limited to (minimal) construction impacts, or should they include impacts which occur when such projects cause private landowners to drain and clear their wetland holdings? A second crucial question is whether wetland depletion and conversion to agricultural cropland has been excessive. This title will be of interest to students of Environmental Economics and Policy.

The Wealth of Nature

How Mainstream Economics Has Failed the Environment

By: Robert Nadeau

In this hard-hitting book, Nadeau claims that to avoid the prospect of large-scale irreversible damage to the global environment, society has only one option: they must displace neoclassical economic theory with an environmentally responsible economic theory.

The Challenge of Climate Change

Which Way Now?

By: Daniel P. Perlmutter,Robert L. Rothstein

Global warming and climate change present complex interlocking issues of public policy, multilateral negotiation, and technological advancement. This book explores both the problems and the opportunities presented by international agreements, and examines the technological developments and policy goals that can be pursued to effect the changes necessary. Specific steps are proposed in the form of a list of priorities. This book represents a cooperative enterprise between two authors of different backgrounds - engineering and international relations - and is directed to an educated but non-professional lay audience without any formal training in either science or international relations. The points of view of negotiators from both developed and developing nations are presented and compared. Each topic is presented from both technical and policy perspectives as a means to evaluate the variety of proposals that have been offered as remedies to global warming. The text is supported by illustrations and tables where appropriate, including a list of References at the end of each chapter.
