污染的累积对人类健康造成了负面影响。特别是污染的极端加剧,可能会对人类,甚至所有活着的有机体产生致命的影响。因此,本文设计了一个新的经济增长模型,该模型通过污染阈值来考虑累积污染的这些致命影响,以显示两个关键结果。首先,如果减排技术的效率相对较低,就会存在一个稳定的稳定状态,在这种状态下,消耗和污染将停止增长。其次,如果减排技术足够有效,就存在一条道路,沿着这条道路,污染将加速减少,直到最终达到零。在这种情况下,消费以恒定的速度增长。
The accumulation of pollution negatively impacts human health. Extreme increases in pollution, in particular, may have lethal implications for human beings, and, indeed, all living organisms. This paper thus devises a new model of economic growth that takes into account these lethal effects of accumulated pollution via a pollution threshold to show two key results. First, if an abatement technology is relatively inefficient, there exists a stationary steady state in which consumption and pollution stop growing. Second, if the abatement technology is sufficiently efficient, there exists a path along which pollution decreases at an accelerating rate until it finally reaches zero. In this case, consumption grows at a constant rate.
