Question

Think about a country where most economic production results in a ground-shaking explosion that cracks the foundations of buildings. What would be the trade-off if the bad result (a ground-shaking explosion) were reduced?

Answer 1

Answer:

If the bad results are to be reduced, the trade-off would be that most economic production units would have to be shut down and hence, many people would lose their jobs.

Explanation:

• For any activity carried out by humans, there is a certain degree of negative impact or a negative footprint left.
• As the income earned by performing a specific activity needs to be spent for the fulfillment of some other activity, in the same way, an activity done to earn has to be naturally coupled with an activity of loss sooner or later.
