- - - - Examples:
        
        Illegal deforestation in Brazil due to an increase in the country’s cattle ranching operations, which requires significant land for grazing
        
        Overfishing in coastal areas that include Southeast Asia, which has significantly contributed to reduced fish populations and oceanic pollution
        
        Overdependence on cash crops, such as coffee, cacao, and various fruits, which has contributed to habitat loss, especially in tropical climates
    - - Increased greenhouse gas emissions, ocean acidification, deforestation (and other forms of habitat loss or destruction), climate change, and the introduction of invasive species all work to reduce biodiversity around the globe.
        
        Evidence
        
        According to the World Wildlife Fund’s recent Living Planet Report, the population sizes of all organisms—including mammals, birds, fish, amphibians, and reptiles—have decreased 68 percent since 1970.
- - - - Monopsony is market power in employing factors of production. For example, firms can have monopsony power in employing workers and paying lower wages. This enables firms to be more profitable but can mean workers don’t share from the same level of proceeds as the owners of capital. It explains why with increasing monopsony power we have seen periods of stagnant real wage growth while firms profitability has increased (2007-17 in UK and US)
  - - - A factory or workshop, especially in the clothing industry, where manual workers are employed at very low wages for long hours and under poor conditions.
      - Sweatshops often have poor working conditions, unfair wages, unreasonable hours, child labor, and a lack of benefits for workers
      - Bangledesh Example
        
        There are 4,500 sweatshops throughout the country.
        
        50 million people depend on the garment industry and the country's economy is dependent on it.
        
        However, the people who work in sweatshops have no choice because its their only source of income.
        
        Sweatshop workers in Bangladesh are paid just 24 US dollars per month. And that's the official minimum. Most workers only get 13-15 US dollars per month. The above number is based on the official minimum wage.
        
        This is caused by race to the bottom.
