ENVIRONMENTAL ECONOMIC RESEARCH HAS AN AUDIENCE BUT NOT A SPONSOR: DISCUSSION

Mary Jo Kealy

Agricultural and Resource Economics Review, 1994, vol. 23, issue 2, 5

Abstract: There exists no mechanism for federal agencies, national laboratories, industry, and academic institutions to set a national environmental research agenda. Moreover, funding for social science research is inadequate for providing a sound scientific basis for making environmental policy. Despite this lack of leadership, it is quite possible to define an environmental economic research agenda that could lead to improved policies for protecting and managing the environment. The present paper makes some recommendations from an insider's viewpoint.
