| 单词 | pollution control |
| 释义 | pollution control Methods of reducing pollution. These include taxing polluting activities, and the imposition of quantitative restrictions on pollution. Quantitative methods may take the form of prohibition of polluting activities, the imposition of pollution standards, which limit the permissible amount of pollution per unit of an activity, or the issue of a restriced number of permits to pollute, which may or may not be tradable. Prohibition of pollution may not be possible if there is no alternative production method available. Longer-term policies to reduce pollution include education of firms and the public about its effects, which can reduce pollution when cheap alternatives are available, and research into alternative less- or non-polluting technology. Restriction of the overall level of economic activity could reduce pollution, but is unlikely to be acceptable to any but the richest countries for the foreseeable future. |
