Conservation markets

Global coordination towards marine conservation is likely to be more efficient than unilateral efforts, but no institution currently allows for nations to cooperate over the conservation of the marine environment. I use ecological principles, global empirical data on biodiversity and fisheries, and environmental economics to propose and analyze a new institution where nations can trade conservation obligations within reasonable ecological constraints: a global market for marine conservation. We describe the challenges and solutions to designing a market for marine conservation, and provide an example of how to build such a market and estimate the gains from trade.
