Abstract
A growing attention of researchers and politicians to the processes of formation and implementation of the environmental compensation mechanism is fixed in the last decade. Environmental compensation has been viewed as a national or regional regulatory mechanism that contributes to balancing the goal of environmental conservation with the goals of sustainable socio-economic development. The literature on the ecosystem service has developed the terminology of the eco-compensation mechanism. Still, they do not define its functional structure within its framework, in particular, a compensation mechanism for damage from the deterioration of ecosystem services. We characterised this crucial but relatively understudied component of the eco-compensation mechanism and suggested a general formula for determining the magnitude of compensatory payments for damages from degradation/destruction of ecosystem services, which will help to improve the implementation of compensatory payments in decision-making as well as drive green economic activity.
期刊介绍:
IJGEnvI is a refereed reference and authoritative source of information in the field. Facing up to the challenge of longer-term issues, it completes the trio of journals (together with the IJEP and IJETM) which offer a comprehensive view of the key issues in the environmental debate.
