The answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable A in the I=PAT equation stands for affluence. It represents the average consumption of each person in the population. As the consumption of each person increases, the total environmental impact increases as well. The choice B is the best choice that represents average consumption of each person in the population.
