The Challenge of Demolishing a Resort Hotel Near Lake Michigan

What aspect of demolition is likely to be most difficult for Marisol to manage in terms of keeping the environmental impact of the demolition low?

a) Disposal of waste materials
b) Calculation of energy involved
c) Calculation of waste involved
d) Reduction of impact on the lake
Final answer:

The most difficult aspect of demolition for Marisol is:

Reducing the impact on Lake Michigan

In this scenario, the most challenging aspect of demolition for Marisol in terms of maintaining a low environmental impact would be the reduction of impact on the lake. Lake Michigan, being a significant body of water, could suffer from pollution due to improper handling of demolition waste. This includes potential contamination from hazardous materials or sediment run-off and could harm aquatic life and degrade water quality. Marisol needs to have robust plans in place for waste management, erosion control, and spill prevention to minimize the risk.

Furthermore, the statement that 'The amount of waste generated by human activities will decrease exponentially as the human population continues to increase exponentially' is generally inaccurate. In reality, waste generation tends to increase with population growth unless serious waste reduction measures are implemented.
