Synopsis

Handbook of Development and Environmental Economics is positioned at the intersection of environmental, resource and development economics. The main reason is that in our society the environment has become a scarce resource. Since economics is about how to deal with scarce resources, it can often be useful when tackling environmental problems. One way of using economics is to ensure that the costs and the benefits of environmental measures are well balanced. Reaching our objectives in an efficient and effective way is good for everyone. Smarter and simpler regulation makes it cheaper and easier for people, businesses and organizations to comply. In turn, this leads to a better environment.
