Abstract

The Netherlands is a small country, approximately the size of the provinces of Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai and Lampang together.1 Yet it has much industry, and with a population of some 15 million people, it has one of the highest population densities in the world. Per capita GDP is among the highest in the world, however, per capita environmental pressure is also among the highest in the world, especially because of the intensive use of agricultural areas, and much heavy industry and traffic in urban areas.
