The competition between the Most Industrialized Nations' push for continued economic growth and the Industrializing Nations' efforts to catch up and develop their economies is having a disastrous impact on the global environment. (A) True (B) False

TRUE

Explanation:

The industrialization process took place using natural resources as raw material, which generated processes of adding to the environment in the most diverse countries. There is now a perception in society that development must be sustainable in order to preserve nature. However, economic growth is still an obstacle to preservation. Recently, for example, this has been observed in Brazil, a developing country. The forests of the Amazon were set on fire by rural producers seeking to expand agricultural activities. This aggression to the environment has become a reason for diplomatic discussion among the nations that buy Brazilian products.
