摘要
治理环境污染的主要效益是健康效益,即降低发病率和死亡率,但治理污染要消耗稀缺资源(经济成本)。在涉及污染与健康的环境费用效益分析中,社会必须权衡经济收入与生命价值。估价生命价值有4种方法:人力资本法、工资隐含价格法、防护费用法和实验评价法。可以从不同途径评估中国人生命价值。
The main benefits of pollution abatement are health benefits,i. e. decreasing morbidity and mortality. But abatementcosts scarce resources. Where pollution and health are involved in a Benefit-Cost Analysis,a tradeoff must be made between economic costs and the value of a life. There are 4 methods to value a life:the Human Capital Approach,the Hedonic Wage Method,theAverfing Costs Method,and the Contiongent Valuation Method. The value of a Chinese life can be estimated in several ways.
