Q:

Which best describes the practice of outsourcing?

Answer

 


In business, outsourcing is an agreement in which one company contracts its own internal activity to different company. It involves the contracting out of a business process (e.g. payroll processing, claims processing) and operational, and/or non-core functions (e.g. manufacturing, facility management, call center support) to another party (see also business process outsourcing).


 


A company moves some of its jobs to another country and employing workers in other countries to save on labor costs best describes the practice of outsourcing.

The ability of humans to ___________ the landscape and recognize the consequences of doing so puts us in a peculiar position.

As a species we are assigned the duty to provide and proliferate. Our goal is to achieve stability for ourselves and our kin. However, we also have an obligation to maintain the environment, as we depend on the resources and services it provides. The question then becomes:
what is our role in nature? Do we have the right to _________ the land, factory farm animals, and pollute waterways? Or do we have an obligation to reduce our numbers and merely subsist? In order to answer these questions, we must rely on our knowledge of Earth, evolution, and our influence on the environment.
