Abstract: | This article focuses on three key categories of public policy that provide substantial opportunities for simultaneously achieving environmental and economic objectives. In each case, specific reforms are proposed with dual characteristics. The first and largest section is devoted to identifying the many federal programs that currently waste both taxpayer funds and environmental resources. Proposals presented here range from selling off unneeded metals to charging competitive market prices for timber. |
