    Explanation:

    When there is pollution as a result of the daily business, then it involves a huge social cost, as you cause harm to public.

    But company's do not consider it in making the decision for business, as it generally do not impact the business in financial matters.

    But till the moment the financial impact is not strong of the social cost the pollution will not affect.
