Why do the enterprises need to adopt pollution control measures?
उत्तर
Pollution control is necessary for preserving and improving the quality of environmental resources. As business activities such as production, transportation, distribution, storage and consumption are often assumed to cause the maximum destruction to society’s resources, a need arises for adopting pollution control measures. The following are some of the reasons why business enterprises need to adopt pollution control measures.
(a) Reduced heath hazards: Pollutants in the environment cause diseases such as cancers and respiratory problems. Thus, pollution control measures will not only help in reducing the incidence of diseases but also help people enjoy a good and healthy life.
(b) Reduced risk of liability: Enterprises are often held responsible for polluting the environment and are asked to compensate. Pollution control helps in reducing the risk of such liabilities.
(c) Cost savings: Efficient pollution control mechanisms help in reducing the cost of waste disposal and the cost of cleaning up production plants. This in turn helps firms to reduce their costs.
(d) Improved public image: An increase in the education level has made people more aware about environmental problems. As a result, they have started realising the need to protect the environment. Thus, business enterprises which adopt pollution control measures enjoy a good reputation in society.
(e) Other social benefits: Pollution control helps a firm to enjoy various other benefits such as cleaner surroundings, better quality of life for its employees as well as owners and increased availability of good quality resources.
