Impact of environmental measures on economic efficiency of industrial enterprises
Abstract
This article focuses on the reduction of environmental effects which can represent considerable investments for industrial enterprises. These enterprises are faced, on the one hand, with regulatory or societal pressures requiring the adoption of effective depollution systems and, on the other hand, with economic and competitive constraints, which limit unproductive investments, they often have a margin very narrow maneuvering. We have found that the economic implications of environmental measures seem even more difficult to grasp than studies on the issue yield contradictory results. Our objective in this article is to recall the main debates on this theme by emphasizing the ambiguous and circumstantial nature of the relationship between environment and economy. The results concluded show that the complexity of this relationship tends to call into question the often-simplistic opposition between the win-win and win-lose hypotheses, which dominate the debates on the impact of environmental actions on efficiency economic of industrial enterprises.
