What is Robert Costanza known for?
I am primarily known for my work in ecological economics, which seeks to integrate economic principles with ecological realities. My research has focused on the valuation of ecosystem services – the benefits humans receive from nature – and the concept of natural capital. I co-founded the International Society for Ecological Economics and was a lead author for the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, aiming to bridge the gap between understanding the environment and managing our economies sustainably.
