520	3		_aThis article first describes the new literature in environmental economics on the socalled "double-dividend" and then explores its implications for a broad range of economic issues. This literature reveals that in a second-best , general-equilibrium setting , environmental measures raise costs and prices and thereby reduce the real wage. This rise in the cost of living reduces slightly the quantity of labor supplied in an already highly distorted labor market, giving rise to losses in social welfare that can be large relative to the basic gains from a cleaner environment. These losses can be offset to some extent by using revenues (if any) from the environmental programs to reduce existing taxes on labor. This ame line of analysis applies to many programs and institutions in the economy that raise te cost of living: tariffs and quotas on imports, agricultura price-support programs, monopoly princing, programs of occupational licensure that limit entray, and many others. Thus, traditional, partial-equilibrium benefit-cost analysis appears, in many instances, to have unwittingly omitted fromthe calculations a potentially quite significant class of social costs
