Abstract
We have seen in Chapter 2 that environmental issue, which in general terms can be expressed as the output of various pollutants per geographic area, can be formulated as the multiple of four factors, namely:
-
(1)
population density,
-
(2)
per capita income,
-
(3)
resource intensity (i.e., resource requirement per unit output), and
-
(4)
efficiency of resource use (i.e., emission of pollutants per resource use).
