Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Responding to long-range global warming may require significant changes to economic and social systems, as well as individual behavior. In a constitutional democracy, securing broad agreement on such changes may be difficult due to differing opinions about the severity of the problem and the appropriate response. In contrast, responding to a labor strike, threat of attack, or economic depression may be more straightforward, as these are more immediate and concrete issues that can be addressed through existing legal and political mechanisms.
