What term describes the merging of environmental sustainability with economic growth and job creation, as advocated by many environmental NGOs?

  1. Neo-Environmentalism

  2. Sustainable Development

  3. Green Economy

  4. Eco-Modernization

The correct answer is: Green Economy

The term that describes the merging of environmental sustainability with economic growth and job creation is known as "Green Economy". This concept is advocated by many environmental NGOs as a way to achieve a balance between economic development and preserving the environment. Option A, Neo-Environmentalism, does not accurately describe this concept as it refers to a political ideology that prioritizes the environment over economic growth. Option B, Sustainable Development, also does not specifically address the merging of economic growth and environmental sustainability. Option D, Eco-Modernization, is a similar concept but focuses more on using technology to address environmental issues. Therefore, option C is the most appropriate and specific term to describe this concept.
