Biodiversity change is the biggest environmental problem of our time. It leads to more than species extinctions, affecting the food we eat, the diseases we face, and our ability to adapt to climate change. Our Uncommon Heritage explores the many dimensions of human-driven biodiversity change. It integrates ecology, economics and policy to examine the causes and consequences of biodiversity change, to understand its hidden costs, and better ways to better it for current and future generations. The author tackles a range of difficult issues, reviewing the regimes that determine rights and responsibilities at local, regional, national, and international levels, and identifying ways to protect collective wealth and better serve the common good. This is an important book both for students and researchers in the fields of conservation, ecology and environmental economics, and for those engaged in biodiversity policy and management at the international level.
