  • Careful explanation of key economic concepts in the context of environmental problems makes this book an ideal introduction to the study of environmental economics

  • Assessment of different theoretical approaches to environmental economics provides a key to understanding the various possible policy responses to major environmental issues
  • Case studies of environmental problems from across the world combine a global picture with in-depth descriptions of specific concrete examples

An understanding of economics is vital to any understanding of why environmental problems occur and what best to do about them. This book provides an introduction to the subject of environmental economics without assuming any in-depth prior knowledge of economics. Part one explains the fundamental economic concepts. Part two uses these concepts in understanding and developing policy responses to some of the major environmental issues of our time. Examples are drawn from all over the world and include such vital issues as climate change, water pollution, and loss of biodiversity. This second edition is a complete re-write and updating of the first edition. 

An Introduction to Environmental Economics examines both a wide range of environmental case studies and also assesses a variety of economic theories and their approach to environmental issues. Clearly written, global in approach, and theoretically broad-minded, this text is an ideal introduction both to the study of environmental economics and to the question of how economics can provide tools for improving our environment.
