Environmental Policy and Economic Growth

Environmental policy refers to the rules and regulations that govern how we interact with our environment, aiming to protect natural resources and reduce pollution. Economic growth involves increasing the wealth and production capacity of a country. The challenge lies in balancing these two: while economic growth can lead to environmental degradation, effective environmental policies can foster sustainable growth by promoting green technologies and practices. This approach not only protects the planet but can also create new job opportunities and drive innovation, leading to a healthier economy and environment for future generations.
