Special Issue on Environmental and Natural Ressource Economics : Introduction

The present issue of Annals of Economics and Statistics attests the vitality of the research in environmental and natural resource economics in France, after the special issues of Revue d’Économie Politique in 2008 and Économie et Prévision in 2009, to cite the more recent evidence only. This research revolves around the major topics of global warming, environmental policy and the transition towards clean energy sources. We hope that this issue will usefully contribute to the ongoing debates on these topics.
