The race to the bottom scenario of global environmental degradation is explained roughly like this:   Question 13 options:   Companies seek to reduce their costs of operations on plant and equipment design and this results in higher levels of pollution.   Companies seek the lowest market prices on products in order to gain market share, resulting in inferior goods and increased waste and pollution.   Profit-seeking multinational companies shift their production from countries with strong environmental standards to countries with weak standards, thus reducing their costs and increasing their profits.   Companies seek to influence environmental legislation standards are set to the lowest possible standards in the USA in order to maximize profits.

QUESTION 3 This image displays the production possibility frontier (PPF) for a country's choices between economic output and environmental protection. If the Country chooses Point M, what can you interpret about this choice? The Tradeoff between Economic Output and Environmental Protection Economic Output Select the correct answer below: a M R Environmental Protection S T This choice represents a high level of economic output but very little environmental protection. This choice is productively inefficient. This choice requires equal amounts of economic output and environmental protection. This choice represents a low level of economic output and a high level of environmental protection.

The following excerpt comes from page 96 of Brian Fagan's book The Little Ice Age: How Climate Made History 1300-1850 The Roanoke colonists were last seen by their British compatriots on August 22, 1587, at the height of the driest growing season in eight hundred years. Even as their compatriots departed, the colony's Native American neighbors were concerned about the poor condition of their crops. The drought persisted for two more years and created a serious food crisis both for the local Croatan people and the colonists. Since the latter were heavily dependent on the Croatan, this very dependence must have aggravated already serious food shortages. Many historians have criticized the Roanoke colony for poor planning and for a seeming indifference to how they were going to feed themselves in the face of apparent disinterest from England. But even the best planned colony would have been challenged by the 1587-89 drought. Which of the following examples correctly integrates a direct…

Could you reply to this message (you can agree/disagree or add more information)? Message: "To be completely honest, my knowledge on climate change and the science behind it is truly limited.  However, I genuinely do believe in climate change and also believe that if actions are not taken quickly, irreversible damage to the planet will change the course of the future for the worse. In the lecture, we have heard countless times how we, as a generation, are the most important in directing the future of planet Earth. I also agree with these statements as well. Past generations have continued to push issues down on to the next group, hoping that others will make a change so that they do not have to. This is also seen in dealing with issues like the national debt and other social issues that are yet to be addressed.
