    Abstract Payment for ecosystem services (PES) is championed as a promising approach for advancing environmental conservation. As part of an ongoing project of refashioning PES intellectually and practically, we introduce a targeted approach to application of the logic of PES. We identify specific circumstances in which PES has potential to be ecologically effective and socially progressive. Specifically, we identify probability for success to increase where there are sharp disparities in the economic and ecological status of ecosystem service providers and beneficiaries. In identifying wealth and ecological disparities as important elements of PES design, we do not naturalize economic stratification in any way. Our aim is to highlight significant limits on the scope of PES and to advance a pragmatic, integrated approach to incentive-based environmental management. These insights can help policy makers and environmental management professionals to advance a more modest, targeted and practical approach to PES.

    Abstract Standards for carbon accounting are a core element of environmental governance. We study the production of standards as situated and practical action, which is shaped by opportunities, resource constraints, and existing infrastructure. Careful observations of this work reveals what people do and how they organize their actions relevant to the particular questions, conventions, and resources at hand. We apply this practice-centered, ethnomethodological approach to study the creation of an accounting protocol for nitrous oxide emissions from corn production, an effort within the broader project of enlisting agriculture in carbon markets. We find that efforts to create a far-reaching, rigorous, and efficient standard were frustrated by lack of data, contestation of knowledge claims, and the challenges of collapsing real-world heterogeneity into a model and a set of tidy decision rules. In this sense, carbon accounting standards should be understood as provisional, and potentially unstable, compromises.
