Abstract/Summary

A Valuing Nature Research Project Report. How does environmental degradation affect economic development and employment? This report presents the results of research that addressed this question. The research was conducted by the project Tipping Points in Lowland Agricultural Landscapes (TPAL), which forms part of the Valuing Nature Programme. The research focused on the county of Dorset, situated on the south coast of England. Land use in Dorset is dominated by agriculture, yet the county is also of high value for wildlife, and has a burgeoning green economy. It therefore provides a valuable example of the potential synergies and conflicts between wildlife conservation, economic growth and development.
