Jason Scorse

Chapter Chapter 9 in What Environmentalists Need to Know About Economics, 2010, pp 101-119 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Preserving biodiversity is often considered the signature goal of environmentalism; along with pollution control, it has defined the movement since its inception. But preserving biodiversity is one of the most difficult policy challenges. It also raises very complicated moral and philosophical questions.
