If people owned the air, it would cost way too much for companies to go around polluting it.

Who decides what's good and what's bad? I'll just cut to the answer, no one.
One of two things happens, either a group of people with enough power decide to impose penelties on people that "pollute" the air (pollute in quotes because the definition will very widely) or some groups will pollute and others won't, though sadly everyone is effected.
I guess there's a third option in which everyone matures to the point they realize that even without an ironclad description of what constitutes "polluting" that the air and people under it would be better served by conservation. That said, I'm not really expecting the people that climb over each other to drive SUVs to figure this out/care about it.
