✦ Synopsis

How do governments choose from the range of instruments and policies available in the environmental planning and protection process? Martin Whitby and Neil Adger examine the physical evaluation methods of land use change and greenhouse gases, the tacit value of the environment within the agriculture and conservation policies of the U K and the techniques of economic environmental evaluation. They suggest that as the techniques and costs of collecting and interpreting environmental information improve, a more rational choice of environmental policy should follow.
