Abstract

The causes, consequences, and solutions to human poverty throughout the world lie squarely in the realm of landscape ecology. I believe the book "The End of Poverty: Economic Possibilities for our Time" by Jeffrey Sachs should motivate additional research and implementation of principles within landscape ecology into this critical arena.
