environmental externalities
Environmental externalities refer to the unintended costs or benefits imposed on society and the natural world by economic activities, which are not reflected in market prices. These externalities can include pollution, habitat destruction, climate change, and other negative impacts that are not internalized by the producers or consumers involved, leading to environmental degradation and social costs.
