Why does pollution environment brings polluted food to cause death disease and discourages consumer desires ? Why the quality of human life can not be measured by GDP ( gross domestic product) statistic method only. There have been numerous attempts to construct alternative, non monetary indices of social and economic wellbeing by combining in a single statistic a variety of different factors that are thought to influence quality of human life. The main problem in all these measures is selection bias in the factors that are chosen to assess quality of life and, even more seriously in assigning weights to different indicators ( measured on a comparable and meaningful scale) to conclude a single synthetic measure. Substantive meaning and prices are the objective weights ( although there are also very big problems in estimating the purchasing-power parties that have to used instead of market exchange rates in order to express countries' incomes in the same currency). However, some researchers have showed that human rights to identify the factors that need to be included in a quality of life measure. But, even if accepted as a starting point, that still does not point to clear to indicators or how which are to be weighted. So, a technocratic and unsatisfying device that is sometimes used is to report to " expert opinion".
