Answer and explanation:

Two focuses can be identified in the efforts of organizations and societies for achieving economic sustainability: pro-growth strategies and anti-growth strategies. Pro-growth strategies reflect how businesses conduct their operations to make a profit considering the human labor and the surrounding environment involved. Anti-growth strategies are mainly based in how companies can generate revenue but the social and environmental factor is not given much priority. Thus:

A) Growth means worker burnout and frantic schedules. (Anti-growth)

B) Rising incomes allow people to buy more education, medical care, and recreation. (Pro-growth)

C) The Earth has only finite amounts of natural resources. (Anti-growth)

D) We still have poverty, homelessness, and discrimination even in the richest countries. (Anti-growth)

E) Richer countries spend more money protecting the environment. (Pro-growth)
