Answer:

Explanation:

Externality is a microeconomic concept that aims to explain the positive or negative impact that an economic activity has on third parties. If by exercising an economic activity, a company indirectly benefits society or community, the externality is positive. If economic activity negatively impacts the surrounding community, externality is said to be negative. For example, the pollution that an industry emits in the production process has deleterious effects throughout society, being a negative externality.

Pollution as a negative externality can be classified within the scope of common resource problems. A common resource is a resource to which everyone has access without control. For example, atmospheric air is a common resource for all. When an agent pollutes this resource, it causes a negative externality, leaving everyone worse off than before the pollution.

Which natural resource is most available in Central American and Caribbean
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Rainforest timber is the most available natural resources in Central America, the Caribbean, and South America.

Explanation:

Central America, the Caribbean, and South America are all dominated by tropical climate types, with some exceptions here and there. Pretty much all of Central America and the Caribbean have tropical wet climate, so naturally, they are covered with tropical rainforests South America is more diverse, but on the other hand, it has the largest rainforest in the plant, the Amazon.

This leads to the countries of these regions to have an abundance of rainforest timber at disposal. Some countries have decided to largely leave the rainforests as they are and protect them while some have decided to exploit them on a large scale. There is an abundance of tree species in these regions, a lot of which are of high quality and in high demand on the global market, and a lot of countries have used this to boost their economy. Unfortunately, this has resulted in large-scale deforestation in some areas.
