In one approach, the government sets up enormous national parks that have sufficient habitat for elephants to thrive and forbids all local people to enter the parks or to injure either the elephants or their habitat in any way. In a second approach, the government sets up national parks and designates 10 villages around the edges of the park as official tourist centers that become places where tourists can stay and bases for guided tours inside the national park. Consider the different incentives of local villagers—who often are very poor—in each of these plans. Which plan seems more likely to help the elephant population?arrow_forward

The cages and ponds not only keep the seafood from swimming away but also provide aquaculturists with strong property rights over their animals.

- Environmental regulation was discussed for cases in which the market is unable to price risk correctly.

Group of answer choices A country with low GDP per capita A country that has long-sustained high GDP per capita A country with high levels of natural resources A country that has newly achieved high GDP per capitaarrow_forwardWhy is it very easy to overuse our natural resources?arrow_forwardFrom the perspective of economists which statement is true: 1.) Benefits estimates for an environmental regulation that will reduce risks to human life probably should depend on the income levels of the people who will be affected by the regulation, despite political pressures to use the identical number for everyone, regardless of their income level. 2.)None of the other statements is correct. 3.) It is wrong to use willingness to pay as a measure of the benefits from a regulation to reduce environmental mortality risks. Rich people will be willing to pay more than poor people for the same reduction in risks. If the cost of the regulation is high, it is possible that the estimated net benefits from the project will be positive for a rich community but negative for a poor community, so only the rich community will get the protection. 4.) Suppose a specific type of environmental regulation, intended to reduce mortality risks, passes a benefit-cost test in the U.S. Then…arrow_forward
