Summary:
This paper was intended as an exploratory look into the problems of environmental control with special attention given to its costs and effects on business and society. Since I had no concrete bypothesis with which to begin the paper, I chose to use exploratory research. Pollution is current, however, and I felt that there was a particular problem concerning pollution and how much it will cost. After a survey of the experts in the field and their proposals, I found some very definite trends. I found the general feeling to be that there is a growing conflict concerning just who is going to pay for pollu~ion control. Whoever pays for the costs, I found that the present market structure does not properly account for the costs of pollution control. These findings led me to the conclusion that pollution control is more of a problem than I suspected and that it deserves more complete analysis as to possible solutions.
