Abstract: Environmental problems are encountered today all over the world, but they raise by their causes and nature two clearly distinguishable sets of problems in the economies of developing and developed countries. While those facing the industrialized nations result in the main from the industrial growth process, the typical environmental problems of the developing countries stem essentially from factors inherent in the low level of economic development—poverty, disease and inadequacy of basic supplies.
