Abstract: | This paper explores the potential usefulness of indirect taxation as a supplement to effluent charges. It is argued that effluent charges should typically be accompanied by taxes on privately traded commodities linked to the pollutant in consumption or production. The performance of such combinations of taxes and charges is then compared to that of an effluent standard. |
