Footnotes

This note has been prepared for inclusion in a Symposium, being organised in Environment and Development Economics, on the article, 'Environmental Scares: plenty of gloom', published in The Economist, December 20, 1997. We have benefited from discussions with Kenneth Arrow, Crawford Holling, Charles Perrings, Paul Portney, V. Kerry Smith, and the co-authors of Daily et al. (1998), from which we have borrowed some of the remarks made below.
