EcoCommerce 101: Adding an ecological dimension to the economy (Book) - 12/11/2010 9:54:50 AM
EcoCommerce 101 offers a concrete vision and pragmatic approach to understanding the emergence of markets for payments for ecosystem services (PES). With agriculture as a prime example, author Tim Gieseke makes use of actual and visionary examples of how cooperation between leaders in business, agriculture, government and ecology can lead to the emergence and generalization of ecoservices markets. EcoCommerce principles applied to urban ecosystems and other business activities, such as retailing or water services, could mean the emergence of a truly-green global economy; one which would be based on investing in ecosystem management and restoration
