The alternative, regulation, is viewed as having a higher cost to society because Pigovian taxes 9L0-402 raise revenue and respond automatically to changes in the market such as lowered cost of production or pollution mitigation. With a Pigovian tax there is always an incentive to reduce pollution, whereas with direct regulation, a polluting company has no incentive to pollute any less than what is allowable.
Economic theory predicts that in an economy where the cost of reaching mutual agreement between 9L0-509 parties is high, and where pollution is diffuse, Pigovian taxes will be an efficient way to promote the public interest, and will lead to an improvement of the quality of life measured Apple 9L0-402 by the Genuine Progress Indicator and other human economic indicators, as well as higher Gross domestic product (GDP) growth.
Economic theory predicts that, under certain conditions, a double dividend could appear. The first is the reduction of pollution. The second consists in the recycling of the 9L0-509 study guide government revenue from the green tax. If the government keeps its revenue constant, some other taxes have to be cut (see Green tax shift). If the government chooses to cut the most distortional taxes, the costs of the swap to green taxes could be negative.
