Tiivistelmä: | This paper aims at highlighting three cases from three different parts of the world, that is, Malaysia (Asia-Pacific), Poland (Eastern Europe) and Colombia (Latin America). It is looked into what policy instruments led to a fall in water pollution levels and what role did market based instruments (MBIs) play in this pollution mitigation. The case studies suggest that it is a combination of instruments: license fees, standards, charge and subsidies reinforced by active enforcement that has led to an overall improvement in environment compliance. |
