• Environmental Implications
In the long run, since producers are not held
responsible for pollution, they have no incentive to
reduce output or seek solutions to reduce waste. The
high profits earned from not paying for the damage
costs caused by pollution will encourage more
businesses to enter the industry, leading to further
increases in output and waste generation,
exacerbating environmental problems
