Policy-oriented coverage of environmental economics for majors and non-majors alike.

Environmental Economics and Policy is a companion text to the larger Environmental and Natural Resource Economics. This smaller, paper-bound policy text is intended for a broader audience that includes political science, environmental studies, and agricultural programs.

Environmental Economics and Policy provides a broad but nuanced introduction to the field of environmental economics. This text begins with an introduction to core concepts and theory, followed by a series of policy chapters that are self-contained, allowing for a great degree of flexibility in course design. Boxes throughout the text introduce a large number of real-world examples and ongoing policy debates in order to bring new perspective to the issues being discussed.

  • New numerical examples, and new graphs and tables further illuminate current environmental policy.
  • The sixth edition has overhauled many of its previous discussions, features and chapters in order to remain current.
