What could a government do to increase the demand for wind-generated electricity?

Social Studies

grandymaker [24]3 years ago

Answer:

The easiest way for the government to increase demand for wind-generated electricity is to subsidize this type of energy.

Explanation:

The subsidy would be either given to firms so that they can lower the price, or to consumers, so that they can use the subsidy to purchase the wind electricity at the market price. In either case, the subsidy would lower the price of wind-generated electricity for consumers, increasing demand accordingly.

This subsidy would be justified because wind-generated electricity represents a positive externality that is not always accounted for in the market price (hence why it is an externality), and the positive externality is that wind-generated electricity is a clean source of energy that does not contribute to climate change, and that does not cause any air pollution.

Eighteen-year-old Alisha was driving through her neighborhood one afternoon and recognized six-year-old Timmy, a member of the C
Tcecarenko [31]

The correct answer is no.

Alisha was under no obligation to help Timmy, <em>there is no such thing like</em> <em>duty to rescue.</em> There is no legal requirement in the United States to help and rescue someone who is in danger. Even in extreme situation, when a person sees a person falling into a river for example, the witness of the situation is no obliged to assist with help.

There are some cases with some important exceptions: if the defendant created the peril he is obliged to come to the plaintiff's aid, if the defendant started to rescue the plaintiff, he must continue to do so, if the defendant is in a special relationship with the plaintiff ( teacher-student, worker-employer), he is under duty to rescue him.

Alisha was under no duty to inform Timmy's parents of the danger facing him <em>but she should have done it nevertheless.</em> She should at least have phoned them if she didn't have the time to stop by. She knew the boy well and she should have cared more. The need to help the boy should have come from her moral guidance and not as a sense of duty to be performed.
