Valuing Nature: How Courts and Economists Approach Large-Scale Environmental Harm

3 Jun 16:30 - 18:00

Damages, Environment

Large-scale environmental incidents - river pollution, dam collapses, industrial contamination and oil spills - are generating some of the most complex damages claims before English and international courts. Quantifying those losses requires economists and lawyers to work together, applying established damages principles alongside specialised frameworks and techniques. This panel brings together barristers, lawyers, and economic experts to explore how environmental harm is valued in theory and in practice, what methodologies courts may accept, and how legal teams can use this evidence effectively.
