what is the conflict between environmentalists and some businesses?
○ a. neither group can find a compromise
○ b. neither group uses facts to support their view
○ c. that stopping businesses that may impact the environment, like logging, will have a negative impact on the us economy
○ d. that stopping environmentalists will have a negative impact on how people perceive global changes

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option a: Saying neither can find a compromise is a general statement about the outcome of conflict, not the conflict itself.
• Option b: Claiming neither uses facts is incorrect as both groups typically use facts (e.g., environmentalists use environmental impact data, businesses use economic data).
• Option c: Environmentalists may want to stop businesses (like logging) to protect the environment, while businesses argue such stops hurt the US economy (e.g., job losses in logging - related industries, reduced economic activity). This captures the core conflict between environmental protection and economic interests of businesses.
• Option d: The idea of "stopping environmentalists" and its impact on perception of global changes is not a typical or accurate description of the conflict between environmentalists and businesses.

Answer:

c. That stopping businesses that may impact the environment, like logging, will have a negative impact on the US economy
