- Abstract
- Utilizing a simple growth model that includes the energy resource
as an essential input, the possibility of a cleaner environment as
well as larger income is demonstrated. Growth rates need not be
lowered to have a cleaner environment, and the energy output ratio
may be reduced. Pollution generated as side effects makes it necessary
for policy makers to come up with suitable policies. In this regard,
several policy options are proposed. Pollution tax (more generally,
an environment tax) and a subsidy for energy and anti-pollution
(environment) related technological progresses are such examples. A
judicious mix of those policies can make income larger, energy usage
smaller, and pollution level lower.
