Socio-ecological approaches in the science of pricing ecosystem services: A perception-based study in some wetlands of Asia and the Pacific

Ecosystem services are natural benefits that support the lives and livelihoods of humans and are classified as use and non-use types, for provisioning, regulatory, supportive and cultural features. For the valuation and pricing of intangible non-use ecosystem services, several methods have been proposed, including accounting for loss and damage, or compensating opportunity costs. This study...

Tracking influences of Asian urban greenhouse gas emissions for sustainability policies: Preliminary report

While nations have made commitments to address climate change, scholars estimate that even if these commitments are met, there remains an emissions gap between where we are and where we want to be to keep the globe under 1.5°C. Cities around the world are working to reduce this gap. Asian cities are large greenhouse gas...
