      Presents a perspective on the link between economic growth and environmental change. The text covers key issues in environmental economics, including: industry creation and environmental change; air, water and toxic pollution; economic growth and the limits of environmental regulation; and ethics and the limits of environmental economics. The text discusses the claim that whilst new industries are necessary for economic growth, their development creates new environmental problems which become difficult to reverse. An alternative approach, "steady-state economics", based on the concept of ethical commitment, is put forward as a possible alternative to a high-growth, environmentally destructive economy.
