There is an environmental pollution problem separating the environmentally dirty economy from the environmentally clean economy; and this is because the environmentally dirty economy operates through the use of environmental pollution production markets. Since 2012 Rio +20, the world has been using dwarf green markets to manage pollution generation...

Abstract
It can be said that under social externality neutrality assumptions when the green market price accounts for the environmental cost of production associated with economic activity as well as its economic costs; and it is in place since the moment the green markets are set up it will lead in the long term to no environmental problems and it...

... Ideas such as dwarf green markets as environmental pollution management markets and green markets as environmental pollution reduction markets can be useful to understand ways to address the environmental pollution problem found between environmentally dirty traditional economies and environmentally clean economies as well as to highlight the usefulness of these approaches in supporting an orderly transition in the future towards an environmentally clean world ( Muñoz, 2024a). These clean market transition ideas were introduced in general as pollution management markets and as pollution reduction markets transitions (Muñoz, 2024b) and in particular as both in terms of dwarf green markets ideas (Muñoz, 2023a) and in terms of green markets ideas (Muñoz, 2023b). These clean market transition ideas in terms of environmentally dirty traditional markets (EDTM) are summarized in Fig. 1 as recently shared (Muñoz, 2024a): Fig. 1 tells us a) that there is an environmental pollution problem (EPO) separating the environmentally dirty traditional market (EDTM) from the environmentally clean market (ECLM) and b) that there are two ways of dealing with that environmental pollution problem (EPO), namely dwarf green markets (DGM) and green markets (GM), the first one being an environmental patch and the second one being a full fix. ...
Clean market transition ideas were introduced in general as pollution
management markets and as pollution reduction markets transition, in particular
dwarf green markets ideas and green markets ideas. There is an environmental
pollution production problem separating environmentally dirty traditional markets
from environmentally clean markets and there are two ways of dealing with this
problem, using dwarf green markets and green markets. If the goal is to
transition from environmentally dirty traditional economies to environmentally
clean economies, then understanding which one is friendly, and which one is not
friendly to such transition is important for science-based policy-making and for
understanding the reasons behind non-science-based policy decision-making.
This makes the following questions relevant: Which markets are environmentally
clean economy transition friendly, dwarf green markets or green markets? Why?
Among the goals of this paper is to provide answers to these questions. It has
been observed that green markets (GM) are environmentally clean economy
transition friendly as they create a profitable green margin reduction path that
transitions green markets (GM) towards environmentally clean markets (ECLM),
partially or fully, step by step. Hence, using green markets (GM) shows a
development road can be created that leads at the end to environmentally clean
markets. In conclusion, dwarf green market solutions are partial solutions that
lead to permanent environmental market failure, which prevents them from being
environmentally clean economy transition friendly, and moves them away from
the transition goal as environmental cost externalization is still taking place by
means of the remaining environmental margin.

Resumen
Hay dos maneras de abordar el problema de la contaminación ambiental separando los mercados ambientalmente sucios de los mercados ambientalmente limpios: utilizando mercados de gestión de la contaminación ambiental y utilizando mercados de reducción de la contaminación ambiental. Si el objetivo es hacer una transición de economías ambientalmente sucias a economías ambientalmente limpias, entonces entender cuál es amigable y cuál no con tal transición es importante para la formulación de políticas basadas en la ciencia y para comprender la lógica detrás de la formulación de políticas no basadas en la ciencia. Y esto hace que el siguiente tema y pregunta sean relevantes: Mercados de gestión de la contaminación ambiental versus mercados de reducción de la contaminación ambiental: ¿Cuál es amigable con la transición a una economía ambientalmente limpia? ¿Por qué? Uno de los objetivos de este artículo es proporcionar respuestas a estas preguntas.
... As pointed out recently (Muñoz 2023) since the 2012 Rio + 20 conference(UNCSD 2012a; UNCSD 2012b) the environmental pollution issue(EPO) has been dealt with the use of dwarf green markets(DGM) as environmental pollution management markets(EPOMM), where the environmental pollution problem(EPO) generated by the environmentally dirty market(EDM) is being patched with the use of dwarf green markets leaving them permanently delinked from any hope to transition towards environmentally clean markets. Had the world not avoided fixing the environmental pollution problem(EPO) since 2012 Rio +20 and they would use green markets(GM) from the beginning the structure of the green market solution to the environmental problem would have looked like the one summarized in Figure 5 below: Figure 5 above simply states how green markets(GM) can be used to address the environmental pollution problem(EPO) separating the environmentally dirty economy(EDM) from the environmentally clean economy(ECLM). ...
... Since 2012 Rio +20(UNCSD 2012a: UNCSD 2012b), the world has been using dwarf green markets to manage the environmental pollution generation problem highlighted in 1987 by the Brundtland Commission (WCED 1987); and this is because the dwarf green economy works through the use of environmental pollution management markets, markets that are apparently delinked from the idea of the need to transition as soon as possible from the environmentally dirty economy to the environmentally clean economy and just focused on managing and bearing the problem(UNFCCC 2022), and which work in opposite ways as perfect green markets do (Muñoz 2016;Muñoz 2019). It has recently been pointed out that we cannot transition from the environmentally dirty economy to the environmentally clean economy using dwarf green markets because their use leaves a remaining environmental pollution problem active (Muñoz 2023), which keeps them permanently away from the world of environmentally clean markets. Now imagine the world would have gone the way of environmental pollution reduction markets a la green markets instead of dwarf green markets since 2012 when facing environmental pollution, things could be different. ...
