The Future of Conservation Finance. 330 $aThis book critically engages with how the conservation of tropical rainforests is financed. Beginning with the context of tropical deforestation, alongside an overview of tropical ecology, global environmental policy and finance, the book reviews several conservation financing instruments. These include ecotourism and private reserves, debt-for-nature swaps and government domestic budgetary expenditures for state and national parks. Tropical deforestation and forest degradation are serious global environmental issues, contributing to global climate change, species extinction, and threatening the livelihoods of forest-dependent communities. Yet, many leading companies, individuals and governments are making a positive impact on tropical forest conservation to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions through the use of conservation finance. Conservation of Tropical Rainforests tells the history of international conservation finance and provides a variety of options for individuals, businesses, and governments to support conservation financing projects. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Environmental Policy and Regulation 606 $aEnvironment 606 $aNature conservation 606 $aNatural resources 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aEnvironmental policy 606 $aEnvironment Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X36000 606 $aNature Conservation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U26008 606 $aNatural Resource and Energy Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W48010 606 $aEnvironmental Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U17009 606 $aEnvironmental Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U38000 615 0$aEnvironment. 615 0$aNature conservation. 615 0$aNatural resources. 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aEnvironmental policy. 615 14$aEnvironment Studies. 615 24$aNature Conservation. 615 24$aNatural Resource and Energy Economics. 615 24$aEnvironmental Management. 615 24$aEnvironmental Politics. 676 $a333.7516 700 $aMcFarland$b Brian Joseph$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0921307 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300573603321 996 $aConservation of Tropical Rainforests$92066423 997 $aUNINA
