This volume presents papers from a workshop on sustainability and nature conservation economics held at the International Academy for Nature Conservation on the Island of Vilm in October 2007. The papers are organized into four sections: weak vs. strong sustainability and risk assessment, natural capital, the scope and boundaries of economic valuation of nature’s goods and services, and practical examples of nature conservation economics. It provides an overview of the ongoing debate regarding nature conservation economics and sustainability. Key contributions include discussions on the conceptual strengths of weak and strong sustainability, the application of critical natural capital, and the implications of environmental valuation. Topics addressed range from precautionary principles in European chemicals policy to the valuation of natural capital in Germany, with a focus on biodiversity. The volume also explores the practical application of environmental valuation in the context of challenges like the Mountain Pine Beetle infestations in British Columbia. Overall, it highlights the complexities and interconnections between economic valuation, sustainability concepts, and nature conservation efforts.
