Regulatory intensity has been on the rise since 1997. The intensity was only 43 in 1997 and then reached 68 by 2007. This paper for the first time compares the treatment costs at the front and rear ends of pollution chain, employs the concept of regulatory benefit multiplier, and calculates the benefit multipliers for different pollutants. Results indicate that enhanced environmental protection since 1997 makes social and economic sense, particularly for the front end treatment of various pollutants since 2004, which have considerable economic benefits. After comparing the benefit multipliers, we have prioritized the pollutants for regulatory consideration: environmental regulation shouM be made tougher for waste water first, and then dust and fumes, followed by SO2 and lastly CO2. This will help to achieve the best environmental outcomes while incurring no additional economic costs.展开更多

However, information exchange behaviors of industry association will have double and legal effect on market and competition, which can not only promote the communication among members of the industry to find a solution to the industry benefit maximization, but also can produce inhibition and barriers to competition in the market. So in this paper, the industry association analysis will be made on the pros and cons of the information exchange, and the legislative defects and the insufficiency of information exchange industry association in our country. According to the practice in our country, the author puts forward the system design of our country industry association information exchange behavior.展开更多
