BOOK

Enabling Environment is as real as it gets. The global commons
are jointly owned and their inhabitants are jointly obligated to
ensure their preservation. In the face of protracted
negotiations, convoluted documentation, discord, and incessant
bickering among scientists, activists, pressure groups of various
hues, politicians and negotiators, very often the people on the
ground are ignored or taken for granted. In the meantime, life
meanders along. It is these 'everyday individuals' who make
consumption-related choices on their lifestyles, travel or on
preferring certain products or services over others. Enabling
Environment puts the individual front and

Ecosystem services need to be recognized, appropriately priced
and the costs allocated to the agents concerned. Enabling
Environment is about defining economic and non-economic incentive

financial architecture and instruments, suitably modified or
extended, to help internalize the environmental externality
