Abstract
In an attempt to tackle the environmental imbalances produced by the excesses of the global economy, the great contemporary legal systems are gradually evolving towards remedial intervention models of a different nature, in line with environmental sustainability policies. To encourage this trend, the OECD has qualified interventions aimed at environmental protection all measures that affect the choices between different technological or consumption alternatives, through the modification of convenience in terms of private costs and benefits. Within these coordinates, a strategic position is assuming environmental taxation which, supported by a widespread cultural orientation, can help prevent, eliminate or reduce polluting activities through a complex of taxes, tariffs, fees, contributions and other services imposed. owed by the polluting manufacturer or user. In this context, the role of environmental taxation can be truly decisive to discourage pollution.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
