TAILIEUCHUNG - Valuation of Urban Air Pollution: A Case Study of Kanpur City in India

It is estimated that NRs. billion per year in tourism revenue is lost due to air pollution in Kathmandu valley (World Bank, 1997). Findings of a survey conducted among 1,702 tourists between May and June 2001 by MARG Nepal indicate that the quality of air is the number one area where tourists feel improvement is needed. This shows that Kathmandu’s poor transportation system and pollution is not only affecting human health and environmental quality, but also the tourism industry (Business Age, 2001). What is Acid Rain? Acid rain describes any form of precipitation with high levels of nitric and sulfuric acids | This work is used with the permission of South Asian Network for Development and Environmental Economics SANDEE . 2006 South Asian Network for Development and Environmental Economics SANDEE .
