The only amount of acceptable pollution is no pollution at all.

The economic growth and development of a country is not feasible without

residuals from consumptions of the consumers and productions of the
producers. Zero pollution means zero productions and zero consumptions. And
there are many sources of pollution like mobile sources which are any non-
stationary sources for examples automobiles and airplanes, stationary sources
which are fixed sites for examples factories and power plants, etc. These sources
are the sources from an urban area that contributes to the pollution which means
the economy of a country continues to run the circular flow through input and
output between firms and households while producing different pollutions. It is
acceptable to have a pollution to develop one's economy if that acceptable
pollution is an optimum pollution and manageable.

The "Materials Balance Model" was created to show the link between economic
activity and the natural environment where firms creates residuals from
productions and the household creates residuals from consumptions and the 3R
will ensure the environmental quality to be maintained, which means there's a
flow of money because of the pollution and there are ways to maintain the health
of the environment. So if the acceptable amount of pollution is greater than zero
then it is good for the economy, and at the same time it is in controlled by the
government policies. The environmental objectives are environmental quality,
sustainable development, and biodiversity that are settled to be achieve even
though there's an increased in the percentage of pollution that might affect the
human development index and it can be achieve through environmental planning
that includes private and public sectors of the country.
Using the theory of public goods, explain the logic of why in some resort
communities the ownership of water front homes includes some defined area
along the beach.

The beach area is a public good which means anyone have the rights to consume
it's natural resources or enjoy it which is non-excludable and all people can go
through without fear of using it because it is non-rivalrous good. The resort
communities makes it happen so that the investors have an exclusive access to
the area on the beach. In this case the natural resources of the beach can't be
overused by the public. Resort communities are following laws and policies
which the government enacted that's why they're obliged to protect it and
promote environmental objectives. So in exchange of investing by homeowner's,
the resort communties included some beach area as their private property in
order to conserve the beach area from over usage by the people since it is a
public good.

Every business is guided by the environmental policies and laws implemented.

The government regulates polluters through the use of rules associated by the
responsible dapartment like Department of Environmental Natural Resources.
Resort communities included the defined beach area for the homeowners to
achieve the objectives of the environmental planning by a collaborative action of
the homeowners and the firm to prevent pollution and maintain the condition of
the beach as it is one of the primary sources of our environment. In fact, resort
communities helping the beach area to be protected by the homeowners from
excess used and exploitation. The public good can be beneficial like beach for
everyone, at somehow it can be distrbance once it was abused.

Suppose you serve on an environmental policy planning board for the federal
government. Your task is to propose a policy initiative aimed at reducing urban
air pollution, using the assignment of property rights according to the Coase
Theorem. Assume that the major polluters to be targeted are commuter bus
companies and that the major parties affected are the collection of dwellers -
residents and workers. Describe your proposal in detail, and include the ff.

a. Whether the rights are to be assigned to city dwellers or to bus companies.

b. How these rights are to be defined.

c. How the rights are to be distributed to the parties.

d. Whether the rights are to be auctioned or sold, and, if so, at what price.

A type of policies that I will implement to reduce urban air pollution is an

incentive - based policy. Through these policies the people will be easily
persuade to help lessen the air pollution, pormotoe environmental cleanliness,
and sustainability.

A 3km walk for life (3kmWFL) is a type of incentive - based policy that encourages
conservation or pollution reduction. If 1-3km is the distance from your position to
your destination then have a walk and you'll received a 3 days free ticket ride in E
- mobile tranpo. A 3km walk burns more calories and fats in your bodies and
except of the benefits in reducing pollution through walking the policy also
promotes in caring the health of the people which leads to have a good life
expectancy. The E - mobile transportation are comes from the bus company in
connection to the 1E to 5F policy. By giving them free ride the commuters will
patronize their service and they will be acknowledge by the government as a
good company.

1E is to 5F policy, in this policy every bus company have an E-mobile

transportation to for 5 fuel user engine transpo. If the company have 10 Fuel
engine transpo then the numbers of E-mobile tranpo should be 2. In this policy
the LTO will have a 40% discount in renewlas of licenses to every bus company
that will follow the policy and the commuters who availed free 3days ticket ride in
E- mobilize tranpo in connection to 3kmWFL incentive based policy can use it in
MWF operation days. The purpose of 1E is to 5F policy is when the bus company
operates eventually they need to use E-transpo during MWF since these are the
days where commuters are more active and then TTH for fuel engine buses. The
benefit of every bus companies that will follow the policy is that they're permitted
to a little increase of fare fee because having E- mobilize is too much expensive
then they will make the fare a little higher than the usual bus and the commuters
will be forced to do the 3kmWFL to avail 3days free ride and it will surely reduce
air pollution which is better for all.

Greenway policy, is a policy that promotes eco-friendly environment. According

to science, plants can convert Carbon Dioxide into Oxygen that eliminates the air
pollution coming from the different sources specially from the moving sources
like bus, cars, etc. Every bus company should place plants on the side of the
roads or highways depends on their destinations and ways. The two parties
would be beneficial because when the commuters are doing an 3kmWFL then the
air is fresh produced by the plants and the bus companies who follow the policy
could gain a customer based percentage who will patronize them because of the
good actions. And the government will recognize them as a good business firm
and they will rest assured for renewals for business permits. The rights of both
parties to have a good ways of living doing their economic activities are achieved
in this policy. And also one of the benefit of every bus company is that their taxes
will be reduced if they will do the greenway policy that will be considered as
corporate environmental and social responsibility.
