Question

question 22 (mandatory) (1 point)
which of the following is true about environmental negotiations?
○ a) science - based projections are never based on sets of assumptions, only predictions.
○ b) the negotiations for action are clear after analyzing different impact models.
○ c) when you examine the underlying assumptions, you may find there is no way to negotiate.
○ d) they are steeped in scientific theories, complex analyses, and uncertain projections.

Explanation:

Environmental negotiations involve multiple scientific aspects. Science - based projections often have underlying assumptions (so option a is wrong). Analyzing impact models doesn't always lead to clear - cut negotiation actions (so option b is wrong). Option c is too extreme as negotiation is usually still possible. Option d is correct as environmental negotiations do rely on scientific theories, complex analyses (like of ecosystems, climate models etc.) and uncertain projections (due to variables in environmental systems).

Answer:

d) They are steeped in scientific theories, complex analyses, and uncertain projections.
