A lot of people think pollution is a necessary evil of industrialization. This is just how the history books in socialized education teach it. Actually, centrally burning coal, for example, is MUCH cleaner than each house burning coal or wood for heat, which is what they do in China now and why the air is so bad. If you have a central plant, you can sequester emissions much more efficiently and low cost than anyone who is just burning the stuff outside can.
There are many examples of this, and if property rights were respected then technology would progress in a different way. Its not a zero sum game, it only becomes that when the market is cartelized.
