Abstract:

It has been widely accepted that the internalization of external cost of ecosystem caused by human activities can be achieved by policy devices, which is also beneficial to establishment of institutional arrangement in the practice of encouragement of environmental protection. To maintain the enthusiasm of environmentalists, it is necessary to compensate them for their extra payment or opportunity lost due to environmental protection. We review the literature describing achievement progress in the ecocompensation definition, theoretical basis, connotation and types of compensation mechanism, compensation standard and method, and evaluation of compensation performance in China. Recommendations regarding legislation, method standardization and diversification, and effect tracking in the practices of ecocompensation are proposed.
