Summary

This quote suggests that companies which contribute to pollution should be subject to additional taxes. The aim is to ensure that the overall cost imposed on society by a particular product is accounted for in its price. By levying taxes on such companies, it becomes a way to internalize the external costs associated with pollution and environmental damage. This approach not only encourages businesses to adopt more sustainable practices but also incentivizes consumers to choose less harmful products, leading to a more environmentally conscious economy.
