Economics for Environmental Studies

The textbook "Economics for Environmental Studies" offers a concise introduction to micro and macroeconomics and demonstrates how economic tools and approaches can be used to analyze environmental issues. It is written in an accessible style that still allows for in-depth analysis. Key topics in the public debate on environmental problems and policies are discussed and analyzed from an economic perspective. This book is aimed at students of environmental sciences who have no prior knowledge of economics and also serves as a companion work for economists interested in the micro and macroeconomic foundations of environmental economics. The second edition has been revised, updated, and expanded, including the addition of a microeconomic section on environmental technological change and an extended macroeconomic discussion on economic growth.
