Quote – The U.S. Business Roundtable, cited in NRDC Blog, 1990

The U.S. Business Roundtable’s study by Robert Hahn and Wilbur Steger (1990). “An Analysis of Jobs at Risk and Job Losses from the Proposed Clean Air Act Amendments” (Pittsburgh: CONSAD Research Corporation)., cited in NRDC Blog: From “The Historical Record of Job Growth and Environmental Protection: A Convenient Truth for Climate Legislation.”
