Solid waste combustion, sewage treatment, stonequarrying, marinas, and oil and coal-fired power plants have air pollution damages larger than their value added.
It seemed to me to be a different world yet it was simply a dour hillside quarrying village producing stone for all kinds of industrial purposes - the finer, harder types for grindstones for the 'little mesters' of the Sheffield cutlery trade and for lining furnaces in the steelworks.
