The overall goal of the project is to gain insights and understandings that are relevant to environmental policy concerning the application of the strong sustainability criterion to the use of the environment and its resources. The objectives of this project are to construct a theoretical framework for the identification of ‘critical natural capital’ (CNC), the maintenance of which is required for strong sustainability to be achieved; to classify the CNC of each of the countries represented in the project, in a way that is consistent with the theoretical framework; and to investigate the economic and social implications of applying a strong sustainability criterion to a particularly significant example of critical natural capital in each country.
