Answer 1

1) False

( The over all conclusion on the empirical work on pollution is that there ois evidence for both trade and investment flows being affected by environmental policy.)

2) effectively discourages the illegal trade in endangered species.

( Export controls for endangered species prohibits the export of endangered species . lt helps in ensuring that international trade in specimens of wild animals and plants don't threaten their survival.)

3) Welcomed.

( students will be happy with the free point. Free point will improve their grades even though slightly.)
