Answer 1

The correct answer is D) citizens expecting to pay higher taxes for more oversight​.

Citizens would  object to negative externalities related to the use of renewable and nonrenewable resources in the map in that "citizens expecting to pay higher taxes for more oversight​."

The protection of the environment should be a priority for state governments. There is too much pollution in the air, rivers, and lakes, that tough measures are necessary. The issue here is that most of the time, governments need to raise taxes to have the proper budget to make corrections, prevent or invest in the kind of technology that allows them to prevent damage and help the environment.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is, in fact, the last one; citizens expecting to pay higher taxes for more oversight.

Explanation:

This answer comes with the understanding that negative externalities is a concept from economy especially related to the way that the economy of a country, region, or the planet itself, will be affected through the use of renewable and non-renewable resources. This concept talks about the overcosts, or benefits, that are generated through the correct use of renewable vs. non-renewable resources, and which will affect especially the future generations. As such, the fact that citizens should have to pay more taxes to increase oversight on companies so that the non-renewable resources are not depleted further, negatively impacts them and thus they would, of course, object to this.
