Download or read book Valorizar el medio ambiente Econom a para un futuro sostenible written by David Glover and published by IDRC. This book was released on 2010 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Una gran cantidad de personas en los paises en desarrollo depende del medio ambiente natural para sus medios de vida, sea en tierras de cultivo o bosques, humedales o zonas costeras. Para estas personas, el medio ambiente es mucho mas que una fuente de recreacion, es la base de la economia. Pero carencias en el funcionamiento de los mercados, derechos de propiedad incompletos y politicas equivocadas pueden llevar a las personas a seguir comportamientos que son racionales en el corto plazo o desde un punto de vista individual, pero daninos para el medio ambiente y las futuras generaciones. La economia tiene mucho para ofrecer en la comprension y en la orientacion de este comportamiento. Tambien proporciona herramientas para los tomadores de decisiones enfrentados a opciones dificiles. Como podemos comparar el valor de los beneficios ambientales con los costos de su preservacion? Como podemos evaluar los impactos de la intervencion ambiental (o de la no intervencion) sobre los pobres? Como deberiamos repartir los costos de las mejoras? Este libro expone la forma como investigadores en cuatro de las redes regionales de economia ambiental del IDRC han tratado cuestiones como estas en una gran variedad de situaciones en Asia, Africa y America Latina. Reune las percepciones de mas de 15 anos de investigaciones y evalua sus impactos sobre las politicas publicas y sobre la comunidad cientifica. Concluye con una mirada hacia el futuro de la economia ambiental en el mundo en desarrollo. EL AUTORDavid Glover dirige el Programa de Economia Ambiental del Centro Internacional de Investigaciones para el Desarrollo de Canada. Ha trabajado en el IDRC desde 1982, primero como Director de Politica Economica y desde 1993 hasta 2006 como director fundador del Programa Economico y Ambiental para el Sudeste Asiatico. El Dr. Glover posee un doctorado en Economia Politica de la Universidad de Toronto y es autor de numerosas publicaciones sobre medio ambiente, comercio y politicas agricolas.

This book was released on 2014-04-28 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En la actualidad, la conservación del ambiente es un tema de relevancia a nivel mundial, por la repercusión que tiene en las estrategias de desarrollo y de competitividad, así como en la propia dinámica de los países tendientes a buscar los añorados patrones de sostenibilidad. La contabilidad es un área que ha tenido un desarrollo vertiginoso en los últimos años, motivado por los profundos cambios y la dinámica de los entornos empresariales que han reconfigurado los patrones de comportamiento de este campo. Sin embargo, no ha perdido su esencia, manteniendo su carácter normativo bajo condiciones de relevancia, transparencia y fiabilidad de los hechos económicos. Día con día, en los círculos académicos, es más latente el interés por proporcionarle a esta área del conocimiento funciones para establecer patrones de acción y comportamiento para mejorar la situación ambiental de las empresas. Es por ello que ha surgido un área que por su importancia ha motivado a académicos, empresarios e investigadores, y que está destinada precisamente a cubrir expectativas de información teniendo como base la racionalidad de recursos: la contabilidad financiera ambiental. La presente obra está dedicada a abordar, desde una perspectiva teórica, algunas experiencias que se han obtenido, tanto en México como en Cuba, con el consenso de que sin duda el camino hacia la normatividad contable ambiental es aún incipiente.
