The monograph takes off from a definition of environmental problems not only in terms of the degradation of specific resources but also of their habitats. Guided by a framework developed to offset some of the limitations inherent in the neo-classical economic definition of the nature, causes, and solutions of Philippine environmental problems, it discusses the factors which facilitated the degradation of ecological zones in the Philippines. The monograph ends with reccommendations on policy directions in the immediate and medium-term period.
