The implementation gap would be the best impact evolution in this case. As a result, the

implementation gap assumes that there are extremely strong policies in place at the national

level to deal with various types of environmental contaminants. For example, suppose one

focuses on the legislative framework. In that case, it is evident that China does a fantastic job

managing its environmental resources and ensuring that pollution does not harm human

health. According to the story, China has the worst pollution levels in the world. There is a

substantial public health emergency. Many people recognize that things need to change. Still,

the challenge has been that, while the national government has established strong policies and

guidelines for environmental management, local governments, which are responsible for

putting those policies and directives into action, frequently fail to do so (Beyer & Stefanie,

2006). The implementation of this policy focuses on reducing human health pollution and

boosting the economic output.

According to Buntaine, Local authorities may lack the resources needed to implement

government policies effectively. At the same time, community leaders and authorities must

accomplish a range of objectives, some of which are environmental and economic. As a

result, a local official has various interests to ensure that businesses in their jurisdiction

maximize economic productivity, resulting in less pollution (Treisman, 2007). As a result of

choosing this solution aspect, finding ways to get around the regulations on pollution while

favoring the rules on industrial productivity has many advantages for local officials.

The research shows that implementation gap policies would be effectively implemented

because they might help the federal government overcome a problem known as the "primary

agent challenge." The main notion is that the central government incurs high costs in

monitoring local governments and ensuring they follow the rules (Schuster, 2014). Being

honest about pollution necessitates releasing a large amount of data, ensuring that the data is

easily digestible by the public, and disseminating the data in several formats. As a result, it

isn't easy to keep track of how well local governments follow these goals.
