解説
Enables students to understand and shape environmental policy through economics
Economics and the Environment equips students with a structured and insightful approach to examining critical questions at the heart of contemporary policy and sustainability debates through the lens of economics. Empowering students to evaluate real-world issues while building a strong foundation in environmental economics, this popular textbook explores critical questions such as "How much pollution is too much?" and "Is the government up to the job?"
The fully updated tenth edition of Economics and the Environment combines theoretical rigor with practical application, employing case studies, illustrative examples, and end-of-chapter exercises that enhance understanding and retention. Each concise chapter is designed to foster critical thinking, covering topics including pollution control, government policy, clean technology, and sustainable development. Throughout the text, students are encouraged to consider economic incentives, ethical implications, and the role of global cooperation in the context of pressing environmental issues.
A vital tool for analyzing and addressing environmental issues in today's world, Economics and the Environment, Tenth Edition is perfect for undergraduate and graduate courses on environmental economics, policy analysis, and sustainable development within economics, business, and environmental studies programs.
