Abstract: Can artificial intelligence (AI) help enable a new pluralistic and multi-dimensional cost-benefit analysis (CBA) for complex human-natural systems? Yes, it can. This policy brief quickly summarizes the history of water economics and considers how environment and infrastructure planners and investors can exploit a new approach to address today’s climate, water scarcity and environmental inequity crises.
