What are externalities in economics?
What Are Externalities in Economics? The first time I understood externalities, I was standing beside a river that looked alive and dead at once. It was in northern California after a season of hard rain. The water moved with muscular force, carrying branches, leaves, fragments of hillsides. Yet the river smelled faintly metallic. A paper mill upstream had been discharging waste for...

What are the goals of environmental economics?
What Are the Goals of Environmental Economics? There is a moment, standing beside a river at dawn, when economics appears absurd. The river does not issue invoices. Cottonwoods do not submit quarterly earnings. Soil never sends a balance sheet to the moon. Yet every economy, every skyscraper, pension fund, semiconductor, loaf of bread, and cargo ship begins as sunlight translated through...

What is cap-and-trade?
What Is Cap-and-Trade? There is a moment that arrives in certain industrial cities just before dawn when the air becomes visible. Not fog. Not weather. A chemistry of exhaust, sulfur, nitrates, carbon, and microscopic particulates suspended low enough to taste. I remember standing near the ship channel outside Houston years ago while a refinery exhaled steam against a bruised sky. A worker...

What is environmental economics?
What Is Environmental Economics? There is a peculiar arrogance in modern economics. It assumes that if a thing cannot be priced, it either does not matter or will somehow correct itself through the mystical operations of “the market.” A forest becomes lumber inventory. A river becomes industrial input. A fishery becomes a quarterly earnings report waiting to happen. And when the...

What is pollution in economic terms?
What Is Pollution in Economic Terms? There is a habit in modern economics of describing the living world as though it were a rounding error. A forest becomes “timber inventory.” A river becomes a “resource input.” A child with asthma near a refinery becomes an “externality.” The language itself performs a kind of laundering. Smoke leaves a stack, enters...

What is renewable energy economics?
What Is Renewable Energy Economics? There is a moment, usually just before dawn, when a wind farm becomes less an industrial artifact and more a geography. The turbines stop resembling machines. They stand like white reeds in a marine current no one can see. I remember driving through west Texas years ago, passing a cattle ranch whose owner once leased land for oil pumps and now leased it for...
