If environmental protection is costly how much should we spend on pollution control? Is it worth reducing pollution to zero or should we accept some level of pollution because of the economic benefits associated with it? How can we assess the benefits that people get from a less-polluted atmosphere? In broad terms environmental economics looks at how economic activity & policy affect the environment in which we live Some production generates pollution such as power station emissions causing acid rain & contributing to global warming but household consumption decisions also affect the environment where more consumption can mean more waste sent to polluting incinerators However pollution is not an inevitable consequence of economic activity
- environmental policies can require polluting firms to clean up their emissions & can encourage people to change their behaviour through environmental taxes on polluting goods for example Generally though these measures will involve some costs such as installing pollution control equipment So there's a trade-off a cleaner environment but economic costs In recent years many economists have argued for greater use of incentive in the form of pollution charges & emissions trading rather than more traditional direct regulation of polluters In this Very Short Introduction Stephen Smith discusses environmental issues including pollution control reducing environmental damage & global climate change policies answering questions about how we should balance environmental & economic considerations & what form government policies should take Including many illustrative case studies & examples he shows that this is an exciting field of economics & one that is at the heart of many public debates & controversies ABOUT THE SERIES The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly Our expert authors combine facts analysis perspective new ideas & enthusiasm to make interesting & challenging topics highly readable

As the destructive consequences of environmental problems such as global warming water scarcity & resource & biodiversity destruction have been felt ever more heavily people are becoming more aware of the importance of & their responsibilities towards environmental protection The causes of our problems are anthropogenic The number of people working in what might be termed environmental industries or with environmental responsibilities in their day-to-day work has mushroomed In many cases however individuals charged with protecting the environment have a set of empirical priorities what is done rather than moral priorities which consider what should be done The need to harmonize environmental knowledge with ethical behaviour & thus achieve behavioural change & the internalization of environmentally ethical values has never been more urgent This book developed as part of an EU programme to diffuse the application of environmental ethics to decision-making on pollution control is a response to the need for a restatement of environmental ethics & for a code of behaviour & set of values that can be internalised & adopted to guide the actions by individuals at the sharp end of protecting the environment decision-makers & environmental expertsexecutivesstaff working in municipalities & publicgovernment organisations throughout the EU & Turkey It is nothing short of an ethical training manual that will guide environmental expertsdecision-makers in making sound judgements & decisions & will act as a bridge between environmental knowledge & environmental behaviour The book will be essential reading for decision-makers & experts working in local authorities & governmental organisations with responsibility for environmental protection for both graduate & postgraduate students in environment-related disciplines & for vocational education teachers with a focus on the environment ...
