Modern industrial societies have achieved a level of economic
prosperity undreamed of in earlier times, but in the view of the
contemporary environmental movement, the prosperity has come at the
cost of serious degradations to the natural world. For
environmental advocates, problems such as resource depletion, air
and water pollution, global warming, and the loss of biodiversity
represent due threats to the well-being of human societies and the
planet itself. But just how serious are these threats, and how
should we go about confronting them? Do environmental problems call
for more extensive government controls over industrial activity,
energy policy, and the like, or is it possible to find solutions by
harnessing the incentives of the free market? The essays in this
collection address these questions and explore related issues.
