Microeconomics is the part of economic science that studies how individuals and companies make decisions in the markets, aiming to efficiently allocate the scarce resources they have at hand. This definition already makes clear the relationship between microeconomics and the environment: given that natural systems are the source of resources used by humanity to produce goods, it is essential to understand exactly what natural resources are needed, how scarce they are and how we affect them. their supply and demand through decisions on the mode of production and consumption.
