Market-mediated effects can mitigate or amplify the intended effects of sustainability policies. They can also have unintended consequences, including inducing new sustainability stresses or threatening food security. It is important to understand these effects when designing sustainability policies. This paper provides prominent examples of market-mediated effects of a variety of sustainability policies in the food, energy, land and water nexus. This paper reviews the empirical evidence on market-mediated impacts of economic policies generally and then provides a review of recent geospatial modeling aimed at capturing these impacts in the context of local and regional land and water sustainability policies. The …

SIMPLE-G serves as a significant tool for researchers to address sustainability challenges, serving as a Convergence Catalyst for issues related to the global-local-global connections affecting land, water, and food security. This paper explores the pedagogical path of SIMPLE-G in the classroom setting, highlighting its key benefits in interdisciplinary education. Furthermore, we explore the future development of SIMPLE-G for facilitating collaborations between economists and other disciplines as well as increasing accessibility to users through cloud computing.
