This comprehensive new text provides rigorous expositions of:
*the concept of sustainability
*integrated environmental and economic accounting
*the Environmental Kuznets Curve
*the economics of climate change
*environmental taxation.
Individual chapters are organised as self-contained, state of the art expositions of the core issues of environmental economics, with extensive cross-referencing from one chapter to another, in order to guide the student or policy-maker through these complex problems.
Paul Ekins breaks new ground in defining the conditions of compatibility between economic growth and environmental sustainability. The book also provides measures and criteria for judging the environmental sustainability of economic growth, as it occurs in the real world.
