Environment and Poverty Times
The links between the environment and poverty are complex and often
invite misunderstanding. Catchy titles such as “Poverty is pollution”
and “Healthy environment, prosperous people” are misleading: they
generalize the intricate interrelationships between poverty and
resource mismanagement and fail to say that environmental degradation
is an inevitable consequence of economic growth, that it is driven by
predominantly commercial interests and is a major cause of poverty.

Poverty in an Age of Globalization (90K PDF)
This report argues that poverty
is a global “bad” which calls for concerted collective action. In a
globalized world, societies everywhere gain from poverty reduction,
because of the negative externalities associated with poverty such as
conflict, the spread of communicable diseases, and harm to the
environment. Nonetheless, while the percentage of the world’s poor has
declined, the absolute number of people living in poverty has not.
Poverty reduction remains the central challenge in today’s global
economy and society, and the note concludes with specific action steps
that should be considered to help address this challenge.
