Answer:

difficult; requests help from the government

Step-by-step explanation:

Collective action problems are the problems that are caused due to the inability of people to come together to solve the problem. This type of problem cannot be solved by a single person and can only be solved if the people facing the problem come together.

The people are not able to come together to solve the problem because of conflicting interests among the individuals. The unification of the people to solve the problem is difficult. It rarely happens by itself.

One of the main reasons for the disagreement among the people is that one group is not ready to listen to the other and without an authority there is no control over the situation. The government can act as an authority figure and can direct people in a way that can solve the problem.
