Question

Is overfishing a social issue?
Ms. Sue
Only indirectly. It's mainly an economic issue.

T
Okay, so the same would go for any environmental issues?
Ms. Sue
Not necessarily.

T
what would be an environmental issue that is directly a social issue?
animal conservation?
Ms. Sue
The first example that comes to mind is land use in some protected areas. Can people with motor vehicles -- especially OTRs -- exist in the same area as environmental preservation?

T
so cars polluting the environment would be a social issue?
Also cloning would also be a social issue?
Ms. Sue
Yes. Cloning is a social issue. Pollution from cars is both social and environmental.
