C. scarcity of natural resources

Japan is a resource-poor country with limited domestic sources of energy and raw materials. This has led to a heavy dependence on imports, making the country vulnerable to fluctuations in global commodity prices and supply disruptions. The scarcity of natural resources is a significant challenge for Japan, as it hinders economic growth and sustainability.
