How can a negative
externality such as water pollution lead to
disequilibrium?

short answers pls you love u

To keep it short and simple, water pollution will cause bottling companies to spend more time filtering their water meaning they will not produce as many as they did before, causing consumers to pay a higher price.

Hope this helps, if not let me know.

unless they converted, many non-christians (mainly jews and muslims) were persecuted
