I’m a bit confused. Isn’t investor pressure a part of the internal factors? I feel like D doesn’t fit with the others.

I remember a practice question that mentioned how customer concerns can push companies towards sustainability. So, I feel like C is definitely an external driver.

I think A, B, and C are all external drivers, but I'm not sure about D. Investor pressure seems more about profit than sustainability.

Okay, let me think this through. Scientific research, increased taxation, and customer concerns all seem like they would drive sustainability. Investor pressure is the only one that doesn't fit.

Investor pressure for higher dividends seems like the obvious answer here. That's an internal driver focused on profits, not sustainability.

I'm a little confused by this question. I'm not super familiar with Alibaba Cloud services, so I'm not sure exactly what kind of data can be collected for monitoring an app on their Kubernetes platform. I'll have to make an educated guess on this one.

I've got a good feeling about this one. The question is clear that F-OFDM uses a fixed sub-carrier bandwidth of 15KHz, and that this can resist stronger interference. I'm confident the answer is True.

B is the obvious choice here. Who cares about what customers or investors think? It's the government regulations that really drive sustainability initiatives.

Ha! Investor pressure for higher dividends, that's a good one. Definitely the correct answer. Shareholders are all about that bottom line, not the planet.

I'm not so sure. B seems like the right answer to me. Increased taxation on emissions and waste is a direct external factor that would incentivize companies to go green.
