Which does a better job of protecting the environment: governments or markets?
Reason Foundation's Vice President of Research Julian Morris spoke at Reason Foundation's annual Reason Weekend and challenged the idea that regulations and energy subsidies will save us from environmental disasters. In fact, they help cause them.
When people are driven by profits and protected by property rights, Morris argues, environmentally friendly products will develop naturally.
Morris is the author of dozens of scholarly articles on issues ranging from the morality of free trade to the relationship between institutions, economic development and environmental protection.
Approximately 28 minutes.
