请问下gwd阅读中的一小段话是什么意思???gwd24套中第7套的第二个阅读 中的一句话没有理解
这段话我标红了,他说旧生产技术经常持续造成没被规范的有毒废物当这个技术被第一次使用时,然后举例说新法规对一个公司使用旧的balabala加以执行费用,但新企业避免了这一产生废物的流程???? 逻辑感觉不通啊,尤其是后面这个例子,完全没理解....... 求大神们解释下
1. GWD-9-Q9 -Q11为什么说环境法规对各个企业是不平等的
Among the myths taken as
fact by the environmental mana-
gers of most corporations is the
Line belief that environmental regula-
(5) tions affect all competitors in
a given industry uniformly. In
reality, regulatory costs—and
therefore compliance—fall
unevenly, economically disad-
(10) vantaging some companies and
benefiting others. For example,
a plant situated near a number
of larger noncompliant competitors
is less likely to attract the
(15) attention of local regulators than
is an isolated plant, and less
attention means lower costs.
Additionally, large plants can
spread compliance costs such
(20) as waste treatment across a
larger revenue base; on the other
hand, some smaller plants may
not even be subject to certain
provisions such as permit or
(25) reporting requirements by virtue
of their size. Finally, older production
technologies often
continue to generate toxic wastes
that were not regulated when the
(30 ) technology was first adopted.
New regulations have imposed
extensive compliance costs on
companies still using older
industrial coal-fired burners that
(35) generate high sulfur dioxide and
nitrogen oxide outputs, for
example, whereas new facilities
generally avoid processes that
would create such waste pro-
(40) ducts. By realizing that they
have discretion and that not all
industries are affected equally
by environmental regulation,
environmental managers can
(45) help their companies to achieve
a competitive edge by anticipating
regulatory pressure and
exploring all possibilities for
addressing how changing regula-
(50) tions will affect their companies
specifically.
