| Abstract: | Effects of an international income transfer (from the North to the South) on the global environmental quality are examined. It is shown that a transfer of resources to a country, whose environmental quality is currently poor, may improve the global level of environmental quality and benefit not only the recipient but also the donor country, even if the technology of cleanup of pollution is less efficient in the recipient country. The adverse effect on the global environmental quality that an international transfer creates is a great concern for Japan. |
