Session Abstract
This session will focus on the Elements Series in Environmental and Natural Resources Economics, a series from Cambridge University Press that provides accessible and interdisciplinary resources aimed at tackling critical environmental challenges. This session will bring together experts from economics, ecology, and policy to discuss the role of environmental economics in shaping sustainable development, tackling climate change, and conserving biodiversity. The discussions will cover emerging trends in climate economics, theoretical and practical frameworks for sustainable resource management, and case studies that highlight successful policy and business initiatives. With an emphasis on bridging theory and practice, this session aims to inform policymakers, academics, and business leaders on the latest research and real-world applications in environmental and natural resource economics.
The session will explore key topics from the Elements Series, providing insights into how economics can be integrated with ecology and policy frameworks to foster sustainable development and environmental protection. The speakers will provide their perspectives on how interdisciplinary research can inform decisions at the intersection of environmental economics, policy, and business.
Relevance to Environmental and Natural Resource Economists:
The session is of particular interest to environmental and natural resource economists as it delves into the integration of ecological and economic systems, providing insights into the economic aspects of climate change, biodiversity, and sustainability. The discussions will cover both theoretical frameworks and practical case studies, equipping economists with the knowledge to engage in policy-making and business strategies that contribute to a sustainable future.
Session Format:
The session will take the format of a moderated panel discussion involving short presentations by each of the experts followed by a Q&A session. Each expert will present their research and insights on how environmental economics intersects with policy and business practices. The moderator will guide the conversation, encouraging interaction between the panelists and with the audience. This structure will foster a dynamic exchange of ideas and allow participants to explore interdisciplinary solutions to contemporary environmental challenges
