Raktažodžiai:
Only through a concerted global effort can we protect our natural resources, save our precious natural environment, and indeed our future. Pressures on our natural environment come from many directions, including overuse, mismanagement and contamination, all of which must be addressed through a range of measures as part of an international response. This much-needed book reviews and evaluates the use of market and fiscal instruments in protecting our natural resources, from rural to marine environments. The expert contributors emphasise the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to stem the tide of irreparable harm to our natural resources. Market instruments that are designed to protect the global atmosphere are evaluated, along with carbon instruments and environmental tax incentives. Meanwhile, consideration is given to shifting the tax burden to achieve environmentally responsible outcomes, balancing sustainable use and natural resource protection, and protecting water resources.

Offering a comprehensive appraisal of market instruments and policy solutions for natural resource protection, this book is ideal for both policy makers and students and academics of environmental law, economics and sustainability.

Market Instruments and the Protection of Natural Resources is an interesting contribution to the literature on the use of economic instruments to address climate change, water pollution and natural resource management. The book contains a lot of factual information and touches upon a number of issues that can stimulate further debates. Geographically the book includes many concrete examples from both the Northern and Southern hemispheres. -- Nils Axel Braathen, OECD Environment Directorate, France The good management of vital natural resources is a key challenge for the future of both our wellbeing and our economies. The editors of this state-of-the-art volume have skillfully mapped out many of the key issues, with a comprehensive breadth of insights from a diverse, experienced, international and well-qualified group of contributors.
