(A1) In his first argument Summer wants to force a sudden increase in pollution, which would cause an improvement in the economy, of lower wage countries. Summer justifies his beliefs by giving an example of circumstantial as hominem. He states, "Health impairing pollution should by done in the country with lowest cost, which will be the country with the lowest wages." An assumption is made by Summer, where he concludes that lowest cost countries will have the lower wages. He concludes by saying, these low wage countries should contain high pollution. The premise of Summer's argument is assumed true, so his argument is invalid, but strong.

(C1) Many agree with Summer on his stance of high-pollution industries in lesser-developed countries. They claim that it is economic logic to fill the countries with low wages with pr

(R3) People, who oppose the idea of clean air being expendable, seriously question the premise of Summer's argument. Summer states, "These discharges may have little direct health impact". This is a pure assumption by Summer and would conflict the opinions of many people. Summer continues by making a categorical claim, he hints that people of "low cost" countries deserve health risks. Opponents of Summer argue the priorities of the less-developed countries. We claim the profitability and income of a country is the most important thing, and sometimes it isn't. Close attention to, by the World Bank, would ultimately lead to the best decisions making in improving the welfare of a lesser-developed country.

(C2) Summer also compares the low pollution of African countries and heavily polluted cities, such as Los Angles and Mexico City. He argues that trying to even out waste or pollution is the correct thing to do. He claims these less-developed countries have enormously lower pollution rates, because the lack of transportation and electrical generators. An increase in these industries would increase the countries welfare; this is Summer's conclusion.
