Environmental economics From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Environmental economics refers to the application of economics to environmental issues. It is usually carried out within the framework of mainstream neoclassical economics which in turn relies on capitalism and its property instruments. Central to environmental economics is the concept of an externality . This means that some effects of an activity are not taken into account when it is priced. Too much pollution may occur if the producer need not take the interests of those adversely affected by the pollution into account. Too little nature conservation may occur if those who undertake such activities are not rewarded in relation to the increase in the quality of life for the general population they help to bring about. In economic terminology, these are examples of market failures , and that is an outcome which is not efficient in an economic sense. Here the inefficiency is caused because too much of the polluting activity will be carried out, as the polluter will not take the interests of those adversely affected by the pollution into account. This has led to systems of measuring well-being that purport to know when pollution is actually starting to affect humanity.

43. Environmental Economics Using GIS j.brainard@uea.ac.uk, or Ian Bateman i.bateman@uea.ac.uk for more details about this and other projects at UEA integrating environmental economics with GIS. http://wwwgis.env.uea.ac.uk/Research_Projects/envecon.html

An Agro/Forestry application of GIS UEA is at the forefront in the UK in the field of Environmental Economics. These are techniques taken from economics for putting monetary values on environmental features or effects, either amenities or disamenities. The underlying assumption is that many environmental features have some kind of economic impact, which can be assessed in a variety of ways. These include, but are not limited to: direct profits. Such as timber from a forest. environmental protection. Such as the carbon-fixing qualities of a forest, and the subsequent economic impacts associated with global warming. ascetic or recreational use: appreciation or use of a site by observers and visitors. Associating a monetary value with the last of these has proven especially difficult. Surveying people to find out how much they would pay ( Contingent Valuation ) to keep a site protected is one approach, but the validity of the replies seems questionable. A less subjective approach is to find out the actual costs that visitors incur in order to visit a site, in what is known as the Travel Cost Method 4 kb We surveyed 351 visitors to a site in Thetford forest (about 35 miles from UEA), to find out why they had come to that site, and from where they had set out that day. The interviewed parties came from as far away as Wales, as well as from all parts of England.

Introduction Environmental Management and Economic Performance Application of Environmental Valuation in South Australia Links relevant to Environmental Economics Introduction A basic principle required in understanding sustainable development is the fact that the economy and the environment in which we live are inseparably connected. This interrelationship is essential and exists because: the way in which the economy is managed impacts the environment, and; environmental quality impacts on economic development. This interrelationship between the economy and the environment is a complex one, and as a result can create challenges in adequately finding answers to address environmental issues such as water conservation, ozone depletion, coast and marine protection, biodiversity, salinity and the greenhouse effect. Environmental Economics examines this relationship, and focuses on the economic benefits of incorporating sustainable practices. Environmental management and economic performance The conventional view about the relationship bteween economic performance and environmentalism is that when rigorously enforced, environmnetal policies inhibit economic development. However, there is a substantial amount of evidence which discredits this view indicating economic performance is enhanced by good environmnetal management.

General Information Want to make the numbers work for sustainable development? If you want to put your analytic skills to work, check out this career option Name almost any environmental issue and you will see that there is an economic dimension to it. Economics has historically been the measuring stick of wealth and success in a company or country. Now the talk has changed and the economy is adapting to a triple bottom line-in addition to the traditional dollar considerations, social and environmental aspects must also be calculated. Environmental or ecological economists are in the forefront of figuring out how to do this. Environmental economists help set a value to the environmental and social impacts as well as the traditional economic benefits. This helps governments decide if a new policy will have a net benefit in terms of cost / revenue, jobs / enhanced health or well-being and protection of the environment. For example, weighing the cost of climate change and recommending the best policies to employ is one role environmental economists play, or they can help a company decide if its new project's profit and job creation potential balances the effect it will have on the environment. It's all about maintaining equilibrium between our natural resources and the need to be profitable.

Role Play for Environmental Economics Resources for University Teachers Role Play for Environmental Economics A Role Play for Environmental Economics by Dave Alden This document has three parts. The first part is directed primarily towards teachers of University-level Economics and presents thoughts on the use of role play in the teaching of economics as well as discussion as to how teachers might make best use of the role play which Dave Alden has devised. The second part sets out the role play itself. The third part gives some useful references. PART ONE: GUIDE FOR TEACHERS 1. Introduction Role play is a rarely used qualitative teaching technique in universities (Newble and Cannon 1995), and for teaching economics, in particular. Role play encourages students to reflect on their learning in an interactive problem based learning activity (see Boud and Feletti 1991 and Gijselaers et al. 1995 for excellent collections of papers that discuss problem based learning). Reflective learning is desired because it fosters a deep understanding of concepts that aids transferability of understanding from abstract, and often theoretical, examples to the analysis of potentially realistic problems. It is important to remember that a role play consists of three major components. First, there is a briefing session, in which students are informed about the nature and purpose of the activity and, if needed, the players who are to act out the roles are briefed about the situation and setting for the role play. Non-players are given specific observational and reflective learning tasks. Second, the role play is run. Third, and of enormous importance for the learning process, a debriefing session is undertaken in which the experience is discussed and explored.

INFER Annual Conference 2004 Environmental Economics Institutions, Competition, Rationality September 17 / 18, 2004, Wuppertal , Germany Conference Objectives The principle objective of the conference is to encourage economic research and to strengthen contact between applied and academic economics. Young researchers and professionals with a background in economics or related disciplines are invited to share their results, views, and experiences. Conference Topics The interrelation of environmental and economic issues represents one of the most demanding challenges both for policy makers and economists. In the face of continuing environmental degradation both in industrialised and developing countries, this environmental issue remains very topical. At the same time, the current problems of the world economy underline the demand of integrating issues of economic welfare and the workability of competitive markets. Transforming industries and societies towards sustainable development remains a challenging task for research. Although environmental economics has become a well-established discipline within economics and much research has been done in the past two decades, methodological issues are now at stake. This is because
