according to the wikipedia definition, ''Environmental economics is a subfield of economics concerned with environmental issues (other usages of the term are not uncommon). In using standard methods of neo-classical economics, it is distinguished from green economics or ecological economics which include the nonstandard approaches to environmental problems, environmental science/environmental studies, or ecology.''

but does anyone have a good idea of what it is - and what work is involved if you pursue it as a job/specialization?

 

What is Environmental Economics? & How useful is it as a career??

A fair idea of what Environmental Economics is:
Environmental Economics analyzes relationships between the economy, environmental health, and environmental pollution controls.

What work is involved if you persue a job specialization on Environmental Economics:
1. Jobs at the Association of Environmental and Resource Economists (AERE)
