Sprouts | Negative Externalities: The Hidden Social Costs @sprouts | Uploaded November 2022 | Updated October 2024, 47 minutes ago.
Learn about the hidden social costs of negative economic externalities, in this 4:40 minute long video lesson.
In economics, an externality is an indirect cost or benefit to an uninvolved third party that arises as an effect of someone else's activity. Negative externalities can pose a fundamental problem to society. The story of Tony, a fisherman, shows what can happen when negative externalities are not internalized.
