Corporations are often accused of despoiling the environment in their quest for profit. Free enterprise is supposedly incompatible with environmental preservation so that government regulation is required.
Such thinking is the basis for current proposals to expand environmental regulation greatly. So many new controls have been proposed and enacted that the late economic journalist Warren Brookes once forecast that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) could well become "the most powerful government agency on earth, involved in massive levels of economic, social, scientific, and political spending and interference.
But if the profit motive is the primary cause of pollution, one would not expect to find much pollution in socialist countries, such as the former Soviet Union, China, and in the former Communist countries of Eastern and Central Europe. That is, in theory. In reality, exactly the opposite is true: The socialist world suffers from the worst pollution on earth. Could it be that free enterprise is not so incompatible with environmental protection after all?
geyser, eruption, and heated ground water because they all describe what this thing is.
Answer:
- It is also called orographic rainfall
- It consists of two sides of a mountain each having its name
- The side with the rainfall is called windward side and the side without rainfall is called lee ward side
The reason why there is rain on only one side is because when clouds move from one side of the mountain to the other side, the cloud is very heavy, so it showers off on the side of the mountain which it is on (windward side) and very less water is left to shower off on the other side (leeward side)
