Environmental Policy, Technology Substitution and Cross-Media Transfers. Livestock Series Report 6
构建了一个分析框架，研究当污染物在不同环境介质间转移时如何制定环境政策，并给出了跨介质转移对社会有益的条件以及技术选择标准。
This paper provides a framework to analyze environmental policy when the transfer of pollutants from one medium to another is deemed important. The authors characterize the conditions under which such cross-media transfers are socially beneficial, and provide criteria for the choice of technologies as functions of the society's preferences for different environmental media. Society's solution is shown to lead to the least level of damage, output, and waste treatment costs.
