| Abstract: | This paper examines the volume of sulphur dioxide emissions and deposits in 26 European countries. Emissions are shown to depend on the level of production, the energy to output ratio, and the pattern of fuel consumption. Socialist countries are shown to be heavier polluters, ceteris paribus, than capitalist countries. This results from higher energy intensity of production and from a fuel mix that produces a greater volume of sulphur dioxide emissions. |
