Environmental economics is a sub-field
within Economics concerned with
addressing environmental issues
through market approaches,
cost-benefit analyses, and a range
of concepts from free-riding to
externalities.
Ecological economics, in contrast,
views the market as subsystem of our
natural ecosystem and places its
focus on the preservation of natural
resources.
