註釋
Governments' traditional method of dealing with pollution-related problems has been to employ command and control (CAC) types of regulations, whereby firms and individuals are told the amount of pollutants they can emit, the type of technology to use, the goods they may produce, the production processes to employ, etc. An alternative to CAC regulation is one based upon market-related principles, a method which economists believe to be more efficient while delivering the same level of environmental cleanliness at a lower cost. This report describes the concept of market-based solutions; the distribution of marketable emissions; and objections and responses to this concept. Studies of both hypothetical and actual uses of the concept are included, taken from international cases.
