And then what they&rsquo;re going to look like in the future. Because if you are managing for landscapes that take 20 to 50 years to be restored, then your decisions now have an impact on the future landscape.   And so we&rsquo;re looking at ways to build signals into models so that individual companies can understand what the whole landscape looks like in the future and what  the impact of their current decisions on the future scarcity is so they can manage for all those thresholds now and in the future.  <\/em> <\/p>\n<p> Among the economic instruments Dr. Marian Weber is developing for Alberta is a transfer development credits program. <\/p>\n<p><em> Thanks today to  <strong>Alberta Innovates Technology Futures<\/strong><\/em> <\/p>\n<p> <strong>FOR INNOVATION ANTHOLOGY<br \/> I&rsquo;M CHERYL CROUCHER<\/strong> <\/p>\n<h2>Guest<\/h2>\n<h3> , <\/h3>\n<h4>, , , , <\/h4>\n<h2>Sponsor<\/h2>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.albertatechfutures.ca\">Alberta Innovates Technology Futures<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Alberta Innovates launched its consolidation on November 1, 2016<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et-waypoint et_pb_image et_pb_animation_off et_pb_image_5 et_always_center_on_mobile et_pb_image_sticky et-animated\"> \t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/albertainnovates.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/tech_futures_v2_icon.png\" \/> \t\t\t \t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><strong>780-450-5111<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.albertatechfutures.ca\/\">albertatechfutures.ca<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>250 Karl Clark Road,<br \/>Edmonton, Alberta, Canada<br \/>T6N 1E4<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/innovationanthology.com\/uploads\/AI_Tech_RGB_smallForWeb.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Program Date:<\/strong>\u00a02011-12-08<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Increased pressure for both industrial and urban development does not bode well for <strong>conserving the environment. <\/strong> Unless, perhaps, you can attach a <strong>market<\/strong> or dollar value to conservation  <strong>Dr. Marian Weber <\/strong>is an economist who leads the Environmental Planning and Economics Program at Alberta Innovates Technology Futures.<em>  (Alberta Innovates Technology Futures) <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63,33,9,27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1101","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-alberta-innovates-technology-futures","category-economy","category-environment","category-women-in-science","has-post-title","has-post-date","has-post-category","has-post-tag","has-post-comment","has-post-author",""],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1101","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1101"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1101\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4758,"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1101\/revisions\/4758"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1101"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1101"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1101"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
