Environmental concerns are closely associated with economic activities. Without considering economic and social impacts, any policy to reduce environmental degradation becomes futile. Environmental economics is an expanding area that searches for solutions to environmental problems in tandem with the consideration of economic development. This book provides an overview of the environment-economy interface, natural resources, environmental valuation and examples of environmental policies. It contains case studies, short descriptions of current issues of global importance and international initiatives for the environment. The book’s primary objective is to make the readers aware of the interdependence between environment and economics. Young students, trainees, teachers and academicians will find this book useful as an introduction to environmental economics.
