Environment, Energy, and Agriculture

While the cases in this section often consider local matters like land ownership, disaster recovery, or infrastructure development, the decisions made are influenced by or have important implications for issues of global concern. From climate change to sustainable energy, public health to pollution control, the scenarios presented by these cases ask students to explore the intersections of economics, government, science, and management.
