Most volumes in the environmental economics literature consider the
environment to be a public good and hence write out a role for the
private sector in a source of supply. Yet there is ample evidence
of the private sector being involved, driven both by profit and
altruism. This book provides the necessary conceptual base for the
inclusion of the private sector in the environmental protection
supply equation and deliver an extensive set of examples in a wide
range of contexts. In an economic climate where governments are
attempting to reduce expenditures, the increased role for the
private sector will be readily embraced by policy makers.The aim of
the book is to establish the principles of markets in the provision
of environmental protection and to provide an extensive
experience-based set of contexts in which the private sector has
acted to enhance the supply of environmental goods and services.
These contexts include both pure-private sector initiatives in
terrestrial, aquatic and marine ecosystems and public-private
sector 'joint initiatives' such as payment for environmental
services (PES) schemes.
