This report proposes research priorities for social and behavioral scientist, scholars and practitioners working on environmental issues. It describes the need to develop a better environmental decision process, the institutions for environmental governance in terms of their research needs, the role of the environment in business decision making and in individual behavior, and science which is relevant to making evidence-based environmental policies. The appendices include five related articles with topics such as social science as a tool of environmental decision making, methods of improvement of the environmental decision process, the need for research in businesses' environmental decision making and forecasting new research priorities.
