Perhaps you should read this (again):
"...every economics textbook I know of has argued that the government should
intervene in the market to discourage activities that damage the environment."

They do not even consider that to be true I am afraid - or at least their

saying they are wrong? Or was my assertion about your market beliefs correct?
