Could you characterise what is meant by this?
I know that achieving some objective 'X' may not be amenable to regulation which says 'you must do X'; but regulation may (in some circumstances, with sufficient thought) alter the situation's dynamics such that greedy self-interest in that environment just-so-happens to coincide with causing 'X'.
What better alternatives are there to "top down control"; do you mean a "vote with your wallet" sort of 'bottom up' pressure?

There's no gov agency, with some academia pencil pusher in some removed city overseaing them. They've figured it out. And they will continue to do so. p.s. Team of Teams (book) does a great job flying to decentralized flag.
