Natural and environmental resources have three economic roles waste disposal services related to the environment's assimilative capacity natural resource inputs into production and directly consumed life support services and aesthetic amenities. The natural and environmental resource input function is central to understanding the relationship between economic growth and environment. Water soil air biological forest and fisheries resources are productive assets whose quality helps determine the productivity of the economy. Focusing on this role of environment as a producer good highlights the direct effect of environmental problems on economic growth. Environmental degradation imposes costs on the economy which results in output and human capital losses. According to W.D.R. environmental protection involves a huge expenditure and this expenditure is bound to strain the resources available with the developing countries considerably but expenditure on good environmental policies often bring good economic returns too. They are thus no more or less affordable than other desirable investment in industry agriculture public services or human resources. Private markets provide little or no incentive for curbing pollution therefore environmental protection is one area in which government must maintain a central role. The presentation in this book does not compromise economic theoretical concepts but it does complement economic theory with timely real world application. 366 pp. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 60210
