79. Systematic nature positive markets

Author

Bush, Alex, Simpson, Katherine Hannah, Hanley, Nick, Bush, Alex, Simpson, Katherine Hannah, and Hanley, Nick

Abstract

Environmental markets are a rapidly emerging tool to mobilize private funding to support landholders to undertake more sustainable land management. One aim of such markets is to incentivize ecosystem restoration world‐wide. How we measure and subsequently trade units of biodiversity within these markets creates key challenges both ecologically and economically, since it determines whether environmental markets will be ecologically successful in delivering net gains in biodiversity, and economically efficient in lowering the costs of conservation. Our innovation in this paper is to develop and then test a new metric for such markets based on the well‐established principle of irreplaceability from Systematic Conservation Planning. Irreplaceability as a metric allows us to capture the multidimensional nature of ecosystems (e.g., habitats, species, ecosystem functioning) yet simultaneously achieve cost‐effective, land manager‐led investments in conservation. Using an integrated ecological modelling approach, we tested whether using irreplaceability as a metric is more ecologically and economically beneficial than the simpler biodiversity offset metrics typically used in net gain and no‐net‐loss policies. Taken together, our results demonstrate that irreplaceability can deliver no net loss of biodiversity, avoids the limitations of like‐for‐like trading, reduces costs of offsetting to developers and society, ensures land managers are fairly rewarded for the opportunity costs of conservation, and safeguards sites critical to achieving conservation goals. More generally, our study highlights the benefits of integrating economic data and approaches within Systematic Conservation planning as a means of incentivizing the most ecologically and economically efficient investments in nature recovery.

Abstract

This paper examines empirically the importance of equity preferences for the formation of international environmental agreements (IEA) for transboundary pollution control. Although it has been shown theoretically that the existence of equity preferences among countries considering an IEA increases the chances for formation and stability of a coalition, empirical assessments of such preferences have been limited to climate change mitigation and single‐country studies. We consider the case of marine plastic pollution, of which a large share consists of food and beverage containers, representing a transboundary pollution control problem of increasing policy concern, with properties that lead to distinct considerations for equity and the sharing of abatement costs. We employ a coordinated choice experiment in the United Kingdom and United States to assess preferences for abatement‐cost allocations in a marine plastics IEA. Pairs of cooperating countries and the relative allocation of abatement costs are varied experimentally. Results show systematic aversion to both advantageous and disadvantageous inequality with respect to abatement costs but also that the relative strength of advantageous and disadvantageous inequality aversion differs across countries. Across both countries, there is evidence that left‐leaning voters generally favor more equal international sharing of abatement costs. Differences of these results from the case of greenhouse gas emission reduction, and implications for current efforts to establish a legally binding global treaty on marine plastic pollution, are discussed.
