Title: Nature Phase II Issue Identification Paper
Description: The purpose of this paper is to clarify and develop the basic program idea for the second phase of the NRTEE’s Nature Conservation program, and to recommend options for how to focus the program in a program plan. The paper begins by clarifying the problem, or barrier, that Phase II will address. This barrier is the failure to integrate the true costs and benefits of nature into decision-making, which essentially refers to the fact that private decisions externalize many environmental costs.
