Answer with Explanation:

The relaxation of environmental rules on timber production would result in increase in deforestation which will result in increase in Carbon dioxide emission surplus because the plants would be in lower quantity than before.

Apart all these factors, the food prices would increase because of decrease in the rain  as the production will fall and this fall in production is basically a decrease in supply. This decrease in supply would increase the demand of the product and hence the price of the product will increase. This all because of the fact the deforestation caused by the timber cutting would decrease the chances of rain in the country. The production of the food would be affected by the rain and hence the price of the food would grow in the long term.

The price of the housing will now decrease as the supply of timber will increase in the market which will result in decrease in the price of the timber and related poducts that can be used as a substitute or alternative products. So this will decrease the price of the housing. The customer demand of the timber would only grow if the supply of the timber is more in quantity than before which reduce the price of the product significantly. The future of the timber use in housing would definitely grow which means it will be in growing business and that the customer will also prefer timber due to its qualities and the reduced cost of the timber.

The prices of the oil will remain unaffected as the cutting of timber have very minor impact on the supply or demand of the product.

Hence the housing sector will enjoy the most of the benefits and the industry that will very slightly suffer is food industry in the long term due to the impact of deforestation.

Which of the following actions would likely raise homeowner's insurance premiums? Building the home in the floodplain of a river
natita [175]
Insurance is a coverage that assesses the risk of a certain item/person. If that item/person is in good condition, your insurance will be lower because it's less likely it'll get damaged. 
This is why if you have a bad driving history, your car insurance is high (as there is a high risk). 
If you were to instal an alarm, live in a safe neighbourhood or choose not to install a swimming pool you would actually reduce your insurance.
If you have an alarm, you are less likely to have stuff stolen (safer = less risk).
Living in a safe neighbourhood is safer = less risk.
Not installing a pool means your property remains the same value (putting a pool could increase it), higher risk of someone drowning in the pool, or hurting themselves. So by not building the pool, you'll have a safer environment = less risk.

If you build your house in a floodplain, the chance of your house getting damages by a flood is very very high, so you will have to pay more as there is an increased risk.
