Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Discriminatory trade practices that favor industrialized countries over developing countries are a major issue at meetings of the World Trade Organization. Developing countries often face barriers to trade and subsidies given to industries in industrialized countries, causing an uneven playing field in the global marketplace. This perpetuates a cycle of poverty and hinders sustainable resource management in developing countries. Environmental scientists should be aware of these issues as they are intimately linked to resource management and sustainability.
