Earth Economics
Earth Economics is devoted to advancing and applying the science of ecological economics to promote healthy ecosystems, communities and economies, and to halting the globalization of unsustainable economic policies.
Focusing on the vital areas of toxics, forests, fisheries and global trade policy, Earth Economics achieves its goals through organization, education and advocacy.
Earth Economics works in the local Puget Sound region and globally on projects fulfilling these primary objectives:
- Developing and using economic tools to support projects and policies designed to protect and restore ecosystems and local economies.
- Providing clients with technical training and subject matter expertise to support effective policies for management of public and private resources.
- Reviewing current and collaborating on new international finance and trade agreements that recognize the full value of humans and the environment.
- Confronting the global environmental injustice and economic inefficiency of toxic trade (toxic wastes, products and technologies) and its devastating impacts.
