Sustainability thought 162: Can we transition from the environmentally dirty economy to the environmental clean economy with the use of dwarf green markets? If no, why not?, Figure 5

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...

... 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. ...

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. And this raises the question: Can we transition from the environmentally dirty economy to the environmental clean economy with the use of green markets? If Yes, why? What are the implications of this? Among the goals of this paper is to provide answers to all those questions.
