Industries, agriculture, mining, developmental projects etc. are

POLLUTION QUOTAS

Pollution can be reduced by fixing pollution quotas in the
form of tradable emission permits. The polluter company tries
to reduce pollution load on its own if it has to pay more than
the actual expenses for pollution reduction.

TAX AND TARIFFS
A pollution tax that helps in the reduction of pollution to the
socially optimal level would be set at such a level that
pollution occurs only if the benefit to society exceeds the
cost. Some people suggest shifting the tax on sales tax and
income tax to the tax on pollution. It is popularly known as
the Green Tax Shift.

PROPERTY RIGHTS
The property rights may be assigned to them who suffer from
pollution. According to this if people living near a factory had
a right to clean air and water, then the factory could pay to
the affected people. On contrary, if the factory had the right to
pollute, though it can never be accepted), the people could
pay the factory for reducing pollution.
