Abstract

Airborne pollutants impact upon a variety of receptors including humans, animals, plants, buildings and materials. Individuals who are aware of and concerned by such impacts may value their reduction. This chapter presents the findings of an experiment designed to investigate the nature of stated preferences for reducing air pollution impacts obtained using the contingent valuation (CV) method.
