Includes bibliographical references and index
Because of the complexity involved in understanding the environment, the choices made about environmental issues are often incomplete. In a perfect world, those who make environmental decisions would be armed with a foundation of making decisions about the broad range of issues that are at stake when making such decisions. Offering a simple but comprehensive understanding of the critical roles science, economics, and values play in making informed environmental decisions, Environmental Decision-Making in Context: A Toolbox provides that foundation
Features
Focuses on science, economics, and values
Includes case studies, online problem sets, and instructor materials
Presents a tool-based and process-focused approach to environmental decision-making
Provides a substantial, holistic, interdisciplinary framework to inform decision-makers from a variety of backgrounds
Takes a nuts and bolts approach to environmental problem solving
The author highlights a primary set of intellectual tools from different disciplines and places them into an environmental context through the use of case study examples. The case studies are designed to stimulate the analytical reasoning required to employ environmental decision-making and ultimately reasoning required to employ environmental decision-making and ultimately help in establishing a framework for pursuing and solving environmental questions, issues, and problems. They create a framework individuals from various backgrounds can use to both identify and analyze environmental issues in the context of everyday environmental problems
The book strikes a balance between being a tightly bound academic text and a loosely defined set of principles. It takes you beyond the traditional pillars of academic discipline to supply an understanding of the fundamental aspects of what is actually involved in making environmental decisions and building a set of skills for making those decisions.
