AB - Abstract Environmental policy-making is a human values-based process that relies on the production of scientific data and information and effective facilitation and advocacy. It is always essentially a political process and always involves tradeoffs among objectives and impacts. It is at its heart a design process—a design for human behavior, through governance institutions, for living with a biophysical environment whose ultimate configuration will be determined largely by human values and behavior. This thesis is explored within the general perspective of the “total ecology”—biophysical, human, and institutional—of environmental issues.
