Contemporary societies face key environmental challenges both at a local and a global level, such as climate change, air pollution and nature conservation. In their decision-making processes, policymakers face the significant challenge of incorporating the interactions between economic development and the environment in which it takes place. The objective of this course is to familiarise students with the main theoretical concepts and methods of Environmental Economics. The course will present the theoretical foundations of the discipline as well as the techniques employed by academics and policymakers to identify, analyse, evaluate, and solve key environmental problems. Reference will be made throughout to developments in national and international environmental policy.
