Summary: Annotation In the absence of innovation in the field of conservation finance, a daunting funding gap faces conservationists aiming to protect America's system of landscapes that provide sustainable resources, water, wildlife habitat, and recreational amenities. Experts estimate that the average annual funding gap will be between US$1.9 billion and US$7.7 billion over the next forty years. This book brings together the experience of more than a dozen pioneering conservation finance practitioners to address this crucial issue.
