Question 3 (0.05 points) \( \begin{array}{l}\text { The people who live in those homes around the factory are considered a third-party } \\ \text { because they didn't have a choice to have or not have the air polluted. } \\ \text { True } \\ \text { False }\end{array} \)

In the context of environmental issues, those living near a factory can indeed be considered third-party stakeholders, especially if they experience negative effects from pollution that they didn't consent to or have a say in. This concept highlights the importance of considering the broader implications of industrial activities on local communities. When discussing pollution and factory operations, it's essential to advocate for stricter regulations that protect the rights and health of nearby residents. One common mistake is underestimating the long-term impacts on community health and well-being, which can fuel opposition and create legal challenges for the factories involved.
