message: The Swiss government says: <the following includes a definition of PPP and estimates the externalized costs of products - i.e. costs that should be borne by polluter but end up being paid for by taxes or consumers are at least 8.8 Milliarden Franks.  (http://www.bafu.admin.ch/wirtschaft/00520/00521/index.html?lang=de)>
"Das Verursacherprinzip sagt, dass in einer Marktwirtschaft auch die Umweltnutzung und -belastung ihren Preis haben soll. In den Bilanzen der Industrie und in den Rechnungen der öffentlichen Hand werden die Kosten für Umweltbelastungen erst wenig berücksichtigt. Zum Beispiel verursacht die Luftverschmutzung Gesundheitsschäden sowie auch Schäden an Sandsteinfassaden historischer Bauten. Diese müssen deshalb alle paar Jahre restauriert werden. Werden solche Kosten nicht vom Verursacher getragen, spricht man von einer Externalisierung der Kosten.Täglich fällen Konsumenten und Produzenten viele Entscheidungen. Dabei wägen sie ständig Kosten und Nutzen gegeneinander ab; meist aber nur jene Kosten und Nutzen, die sie selber betreffen. Gesamtwirtschaftlich vorteilhaft wäre es, wenn auch externe Kosten und Nutzen berücksichtigt werden.Die heute bekannten externen Umweltkosten betragen in der Schweiz jährlich mindestens 8.8 Mia. Fr. Ein Teil dieser Kosten kann den Verursachern angelastet werden. Den anderen Teil muss die Allgemeinheit tragen. Geeignete marktwirtschaftliche Instrumente helfen, das Verursacherprinzip besser umzusetzen."

That implies that you are talking about a particular region, or a couple perhaps.  Umm, which ones? Shenme 06:58, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
