Pollution levels are excessively high because individuals and industries do not bear the full costs of managing pollution. The idea of imposing fees for pollution cleanup suggests that if individuals had to pay for the environmental damage they caused, they might be less inclined to pollute. Such a system could encourage more responsible behaviors towards environmental management and prompt consideration of the true costs of pollution.
People 'over-produce' pollution because they are not paying for the costs of dealing with it. If we were charged fees to clean up the mess every time we polluted, would we pollute less?
Implementing fees for pollution cleanup could serve as a deterrent to excessive pollution while promoting a more responsible approach to environmental practices.
