| Resumen en inglés | Nature did not endow us with clear set of laws. Successful solution to any environmental problem implies working within Knightian uncertainty that explicitly deals with decision making under conditions of unstructured randomness. A ‘wild’ type of randomness that we will never discern, due to its unstable properties, makes the assignment of corresponding probabilities impossible. Science and knowledge are intrinsically uncertain, with new information constantly altering our perceptions and beliefs. Scientific uncertainty has to be taken into account by environmental decision-making policy |
