The concept of Ecosystem Services (ES), widely understood as the "benefits that humans receive from natural functioning healthy ecosystems" (Jeffers et al., 2015), depicts a one-way flow services ecosystems to people. We argue this conceptualisation is overly simplistic and largely inaccurate, neglecting reality often contribute maintenance enhancement ecosystems, evidenced (but not exclusively) in many traditional Indigenous societies. Management interventions arising research are thus...
The disruptive rise of the sharing economy has inspired multiple social innovations embodying significant potential towards achieving urban sustainability in crucial areas like low-carbon mobility. Increasingly, consumers such systems participate activities value co-creation together with firms and peers, as through enforcing rules that help maintain trust reciprocity. Why do people choose to invest their time energy co-creating values may benefit wider environmental economy? This study...
Recent discussion on invasive species has invigorated the debate strategies to manage these species. Lantana camara L., a shrub native American tropics, become one of worst weeds in recorded history. In Australia, India and South Africa, very widespread occupying millions hectares land. Here, we examine historical records reconstruct invasion management over two centuries ask: Can fight spread or do need develop for their adaptive management? We carried out extensive research constituting...

In climate change discourse and policy, adaptation has become a critical byword frame of reference. An implicit assumption in much the strategizing is notion that can be rationally planned, funded, governed largely through existing frameworks. But really managed or engineered, especially given significant unpredictability severe impacts are forecast range scenarios? Over millennia, successful societies have adapted to shifts, but evidence suggests this was often accomplished only...

In the United States and Kingdom, over last decade major retail chains have increasingly publicized their efforts to supply sustainably sourced eco-labelled seafood. Debate exists extent of consumer demand for this product. Seafood eco-labels purportedly resolve information asymmetry between producer consumer, allowing consumers who care about sustainability easily find purchase these products. This paper discusses idealized model seafood eco-labelling in promoting presents results US UK...
As experts predict that at least some irreversible climate change will occur with potentially disastrous effects on the lives and well-being of vulnerable communities around world, it is paramount to ensure these are resilient have adaptive capacity withstand consequences. Adaptation resilience planning present several ethical issues need be resolved if we achieve successful adaptation change. In this paper, six core discussions should an integral part planning: (i) Where does 'justice'...

The is a bellwether changes coastal, forest, montane environments that link arctic more southerly latitudes Pacific coast. Ninety-six Elders resource users were interviewed record Traditional...
