Download or read book Scarcity and Growth Revisited written by R. David Professor Simpson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-23 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume, a group of distinguished international scholars provides a fresh investigation of the most fundamental issues involved in our dependence on natural resources. In Scarcity and Growth (RFF, 1963) and Scarcity and Growth Reconsidered (RFF, 1979), researchers considered the long-term implications of resource scarcity for economic growth and human well-being. Scarcity and Growth Revisited examines these implications with 25 years of new learning and experience. It finds that concerns about resource scarcity have changed in essential ways. In contrast with the earlier preoccupation with the adequacy of fuel, mineral, and agricultural resources and the efficiency by which they are allocated, the greatest concern today is about the Earth‘s limited capacity to handle the environmental consequences of resource extraction and use. Opinion among scholars is divided on the ability of technological innovation to ameliorate this 'new scarcity.' However, even the book‘s more optimistic authors agree that the problems will not be successfully overcome without significant advances in the legal, financial, and other social institutions that protect the environment and support technical innovation. Scarcity and Growth Revisited incorporates expert perspectives from the physical and life sciences, as well as economics. It includes issues confronting the developing world as well as industrialized societies. The book begins with a review of the debate about scarcity and economic growth and a review of current assessments of natural resource availability and consumption. The twelve chapters that follow provide an accessible, lively, and authoritative update to an enduring-but changing-debate.

Download or read book The Commons in the New Millennium written by Nives Dolsak and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2003-02-14 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Globalization, population growth, and resource depletion are drawing increased attention to the importance of common resources such as forests, water resources, and fisheries. It is critical that these resources be governed in an equitable and sustainable way. The Commons in the New Millennium presents cutting-edge research in common property theory and provides an overview and progress report on common property research. The book analyzes new problems that owners, managers, policy makers, and analysts face in managing natural commons. It examines recent findings about the physical characteristics of the commons, their complexity and interconnectedness, and the role of social capital. It also provides empirical studies and suggestions for sustainable development. The topics discussed include the role of financial, political, and social capital in deforestation, community efforts to gain political influence in Indonesia, the Maine lobster industry, outcomes of the implementation of individual transferable quotas in New Zealand and Iceland fisheries, and design of multilateral emissions trading for regional air pollution and global warming.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his book, "EcoCommerce 101," Timothy Gieseke envisions the next Green Revolution supporting both economic and ecological worlds. To do so, the market must generate signals that demand ecoservices, such as clean water, air, and habitat, along with the demand for food, fiber, and bio-fuels. As governments and non-profit organizations struggle with defining "sustainability," "EcoCommerce 101" recognizes that as economic participants, you and I always have, and always will, define "sustainability." Using agriculture as the prime example, he employs actual and visionary examples of how an "ecoservice" market signal and an "invisible hand" can assure that our planet will provide for all of our needs in the next millennium. EcoCommerce principles applied to retailing or water services could mean the emergence of a truly-green global economy; one which would be based on investing in ecosystem management and restoration.In reading "EcoCommerce 101," you will discover: the Economy is actually a subset of the Ecology, not the other way around; "Natural Capital" of nature is as valuable to the economy as our man-made factories; engaging in EcoCommerce will be as natural as engaging in our economic system; new career opportunities will about when this New Economics is unlocked; the second Green Revolution will be more than just about food production; and how "Sustainability" will be defined by consumers, society, industries, government, non-profits, and retailers in a unified manner.

Download or read book Airport Marketing written by David Jarach and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Airport Marketing examines the management vision of airport marketing in the post-September 11th environment, presenting in-depth analysis of current airport management practices for both aviation and non-aviation-related activities. The 'aviation-related activities' section covers how an airport as a company develops its own marketing relationship with carriers and, in a broader sense, with all actors within the air transport pipeline, with the aim of increasing the number of intermediate clients consistent with its chosen positioning. The 'non-aviation-related' section, by contrast, focuses on how best-in-class airports have been developing new powers of attraction to customers in their regions, well beyond the simple concept of airport retailing, by use of the so-called 'commercial airport' model. Finally, the impact of September 11th is shown in terms of increased security measures and the future of the aviation industry as a whole. An analysis of worldwide airport industry is provided in the final chapter. Airport Marketing is essential reading for airport managers, government agencies, airlines, consultants, contributors, advisors and sub-contractors to this industry, as well as both undergraduate and graduate level aviation students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Principles of Environmental Economics and Sustainability was the first textbook to make a serious attempt to systematically integrate ecological and economic principles.
