    首先本文是一篇经典的综述类文章，其实这种文章最适合我们了解这个领域的研究，虽然是2013年的研究，但是仍然具有非常强的参考意义。这篇文章讨论了经济学研究中对环境、健康和人力资本研究的三个重要成果。第一，经济学家使用准实验方法检验非随机污染问题。第二，规避行为。第三，对劳动供给、生产率等。污染对个体产生了广泛的影响，然而污染的管制水平其实是远低于应当有的水平，考虑到健康和人力资本是经济增长的重要因素，这意味着以往研究中经济增长模型中不考虑环境问题是一个极大的披露甚至错误。

    In this review, we discuss three major contributions economists have made to our understanding of the relationship between the environment and individual well-being. First, in explicitly recognizing how optimizing behavior, particularly in the form of
residential sorting, can lead to nonrandom assignment of pollution, economists have employed a wide range of quasi-experimental techniques to develop causal estimates of the effect of pollution. Second, economic research has placed a considerable focus on the role of avoidance behavior, which is an important component for understanding the difference between biological and behavioral effects of pollution and for proper welfare calculations. Lastly, economic research has expanded the focus of analysis beyond traditional health outcomes to include measures of human capital, including
labor supply, productivity, and cognition. Our review of the quasi-experimental evidence on this topic suggests that pollution does indeed have a wide range of effects on individual well-being, even at levels well below current regulatory standards.
Given the importance of health and human capital as an engine for economic growth, these fndings underscore the role of environmental conditions as an important factor of production.
