Kibocsátásalapú

Kibocsátásalapú translates from Hungarian to English as "emission-based". This term is commonly used in environmental contexts, particularly when discussing pollution control and climate change mitigation strategies. It refers to policies, regulations, or systems that are designed to limit or reduce the release of specific pollutants or greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.

The core principle of a kibocsátásalapú approach is to establish limits or targets for the amount of emissions allowed. These limits can be applied to individual entities, such as factories or vehicles, or to broader sectors of the economy. Mechanisms employed within a kibocsátásalapú framework often include emission standards, cap-and-trade systems, or carbon taxes, all of which aim to incentivize the reduction of harmful releases.

For example, a country might implement kibocsátásalapú regulations for power plants, setting a maximum amount of sulfur dioxide or carbon dioxide they can emit annually. Companies exceeding these limits may face penalties or be required to purchase emission allowances from others who have reduced their emissions below the target. This approach seeks to achieve environmental goals by directly addressing the source of pollution.
