What does the polluter-pays principle mean?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The polluter bears the cost of pollution control and damage

The polluter-pays principle requires the person or firm responsible for pollution to bear appropriate costs of prevention, control, cleanup or compensation. It aims to prevent firms from shifting environmental damage onto society and encourages cleaner production. The principle does not mean that every cost can always be recovered or that government has no role, but it rejects making affected communities pay for someone else’s pollution. Therefore A is correct.
