Question

Who is responsible for global environmental pollution-the developed or the developing countries? Discuss.

Answer in Brief

Solution

Both developed and developing countries are responsible for global environmental pollution, but in different ways:

  1. Developed countries contribute considerably due to their past industrialization, high carbon emissions, and excessive consumption.
  2. Developing countries increasingly contribute due to fast industrialization, population development, and inadequate pollution control resources.
