Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

NIMBY (Not In My Backyard) reflects the human tendency to acknowledge environmental problems, but not take responsibility for them if they do not affect us personally. It is common for people to be concerned about environmental problems that may impact their own backyard, but not take the same level of concern for issues that are far away or affect other communities. This denial of responsibility can lead to a lack of action and perpetuate environmental problems. The other answer choices (OPEN, BAMA, CLOSE) do not accurately reflect this phenomenon.
