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. Contributors include: K. Bubna-Litic, B.
