Fredericksburg, Texas - 14 March 2001) was a pioneer in what came to be called environmental economics.[1] He worked at
Resources for the Future from 1961 onwards. He earned a master's degree from the University of Colorado, and a Ph.D. in 1956 from Indiana University.[2]
Kneese' research focussed on the integration of environmental pollution in economic models,[2] and on the use of economic incentives to encourage environmental improvements.[3]
