Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research has shown that people are more likely to conserve resources if they receive prompt feedback about their usage. Without this feedback, it can be difficult for individuals to see their impact and be motivated to change their behavior. While individual greed and corporate policy may be factors as well, the lack of feedback is a primary barrier to conservation efforts. People's lack of faith in environmental research is not mentioned in the statement and is therefore not a relevant answer choice.
