12 cheap labour, long hours, no protection of workers’ (human) rights, low health standards, low safety standards

13 low safety standards, low real estate costs, low maintenance costs, no insurance costs

14 low / no environment protection costs → air pollution, environmental degradation, diseases (externalities)

15 low / no environment protection costs → water pollution, environmental degradation, diseases (externalities)

16 Karlovac, 2007: a CO 2 leak poisons and kills a man walking his dog nearby Karlovačka pivovara Inadequate control of the manufacturing process and byproduct disposal Safety standards?
