Industrialization and economic growth in developed and developing nations alike are often achieved at the expense of the environment. Incorporating environmental considerations into overall development objectives is an emerging issue within U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). USAID has a potentially significant role in espousing sound environmental policies, sponsoring research and disseminating practical information on the feasible options, and providing technical assistance where appropriate. The paper attempts to identify and assess the relative costs of some of the currently available environmental technologies.
