Which of the following would not help to correct this problem?

1. Subsidize consumer purchases of trees to plant.
2. Tax homeowners who plant trees.
3. Subsidize nurseries that sell trees for planting.
4. Have the government provide trees to homeowners.
5. All of the above would help to correct the problem.

b. If the government pays for a program to increase the planting of trees, who will win and lose from the program?
c. The gains to the winners will be the losses to the losers.
