| Summary: |
This report presents the results of a RAND Corporation study for the Heinz Endowments.
The study sought to better characterize the links between air quality and economic
development to help understand how improving air quality in the Pittsburgh
region could affect local economic growth. The findings presented here are based on
a review of the existing, national studies on links between air quality and economic
growth and on an extrapolation of some of those results to the Pittsburgh region;
the findings were also informed by discussions with individuals engaged in economic
development and air pollution policy from the private, public, and nonprofit sectors.
The findings should be of interest to local policymakers, individuals, and organizations
working in the areas of economic development and environmental policy. |
