Neglect of environmental considerations within economic planning is generally seen as a major cause of the environmental problems which the world faces today (see e.g., WCED, 1987; World Bank, 1987). Particularly in resource-dependent economies such as most developing countries, trends in the quantity and quality of natural resource stocks should be vital to economic planners and decision-makers.
