Method for evaluating non-economic effects of air pollution.

Abstract:

:The basic premise underlying the approach presented in the paper is the assumption that humans are unique beings that can evaluate. The environment is described as a system of resources satisfying human needs. The assessment of the effects of environmental pollution derives from the fact that there is, or will be, non-satisfaction of needs resulting from a reduction in environmental resources.
