Thinking ecologically the next generation of environmental policy

Chertow, Marian R. (Added Author). Esty, Daniel C. (Added Author).

Summary: Future progress must involve not only officials from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and state environmental protection departments, say the authors, but also decisionmakers as diverse as mayors, farmers, energy company executives, and delivery route planners. To be effective, next-generation policymaking will view environmental challenges comprehensively, connect academic theory with practical policy, and bridge the gaps that have caused recent policy debates to break down in rancor. This book begins the process of accomplishing these challenging goals.
