Sustainable development, climate policy, and biodiversity conservation are examples of issues
on the current political agenda in many countries. These themes are also subject to economic research,
and economic insights are increasingly finding their way into the design of environmental policy. Still,
the reception of academic findings by policy makers as well as the timely identification of policy-relevant
questions by economic researchers often seem to be problematic. This volume attempts to vitalise the exchange
between policy makers and academics. It offers a snapshot of environmental economic research on a range of
policy-relevant problems. Academic contributions are complemented by views of policy makers on priority
fields in environmental policy, the usefulness of academic research for decision making, and requirements to
applied research in the future.
