Clean air act amendments conference; an economic Oppurtunity for Illinois
Books
531
The CEQ report estimates the cost of lives saved as a consequence of environmental controls. In other words, governmental actions result in a reduction of risk. Note that health risks are upper level estimates and true risks (median) are often one to two orders of magnitude lower. The preceding table is taken from the CEQ report. Clearly, environmental costs are disproportionately high and require significantly more attention than they have been receiving. The CEQ report and the reports of ACCF on environmental policy and waste management are mandatory reading for environmental policymakers and those concerned with protection of human health and the environment.
