Environmental degradation of our land, water and air is not just an ecological but an economic issue which in turn has an impact on development.
The World Bank has recently released a report into the connection between the economy and the environment. The report titled ‘Reboot Development - The Economics of a Livable Planet’ explores the issues around a declining environment, its connection to the economy as well as how futures could be managed to improve both areas for everyone.
This episode of Ask the Geographer speaks to Richard Damania - the Chief Economist of the Sustainable Development Practice Group for the World Bank who explores these issues as well as how geographers can use the findings from the report.
