The bubble policy extends the use of offsets by creating a more active market for pollution rights.  3, fiche 2, Anglais, - pollution%20right

L'EPA [Environmental Protection Agency] autorise dans certains cas des entreprises pour lesquelles la lutte contre la pollution est très coûteuse à acheter des «droits de polluer» à d'autres entreprises pour lesquelles la lutte est moins coûteuse; les premières pourront dès lors émettre des quantités supérieures à la norme et les secondes émettront des quantités inférieures, de sorte que la norme ne soit globalement pas dépassée. Cet appel aux mécanismes du marché permet de réduire le coût total des mesures de lutte.  1, fiche 2, Français, - droit%20de%20polluer

Expresa la idea de la emisión pública de certificados que dan a sus adquirentes el derecho a contaminar el entorno en ciertas proporciones según los casos. Se supone que con tal sistema - por lo demás muy discutible -, los mayores contaminadores han de comprar títulos de esta clase en el mercado, con lo cual su cotización se eleva, fomentándose de este modo soluciones conducentes a la efectiva disminución del nivel de contaminación.  1, fiche 2, Espagnol, - derecho%20de%20contaminaci%C3%B3n
