A
country the size of Indiana with a population of 41 million, South
Korea1 has achieved an annual per capita income of about
$11,000.2 In contrast, North Korea has a population of 23
million and annual per capita income of $1,000. The contrast
grows sharper as South Korea's rapid industrial and urban growth
becomes ever more integrated as public and community environmental
concern rises, the government continues to increase the rigor of
enforcement actions and incentives for clean technology and
infrastructure investment, and the business community recognizes
market demands for better environmental management.
