Billions have been spent on land conservation but too little
attention had been paid to how cost-effective these investments
have been. With budgets increasingly constrained, conservationists
must learn to fully harness their funds to protect critical
resources. Messer and Allen are pioneers in making conservation
selection more successful, cost-effective, scientific, and
transparent. This book introduces powerful mathematical tools
available for project selection, using real-life examples and a
practical step-by-step approach. Readers can readily apply these
methods to their own work, accomplishing more with less by
combining the individual benefits of structured decision-making,
mathematical programming, and an understanding of market forces and
human behavior. The authors highlight tools from conservation
science, mathematics, land use planning and behavioral economics,
showing how they can be combined to help protect key environmental
resources. This is an invaluable volume for all students,
professionals and stakeholders associated with conservation
programs.
