Economic activities that degrade the environment do not simply pit humans against nature. They also pit some humans against others. Some people benefit from these activities; others bear net costs of pollution and resource depletion. In a provocative and original analysis, Professor Boyce examines the dynamics of environmental degradation in terms of the balances of power between the winners and the losers.
