Abstract

This Afterword to The Economics of Biodiversity: The Dasgupta Review discusses (i) the ideas in the Review that have been accepted readily by decision makers and are being put into operation, (ii) those that have been accepted but are judged by decision makers to be unworkable in the contemporary climate, (iii) those that are seen as politically too sensitive even to acknowledge in public.
