Abstract

There are various complex reasons for the intensified haze problem in China, but to explore the fundamental economics , I think it is due to that producing and emitting pollution can " generate interest " in current market mechanisms and policy background. Under the drive of interest , environmental pollution intensified. Pollution abatement is one of the provision of public goods, as a result of public goods " totally spillover " feature, market forces alone will certainly not be completed. Expulsion of haze requires the joint action of visible and invisible hands .
