Final answer:
It is false that Strawly Corp. can shift all responsibility for environmental cleanup to the buyer by including such a provision in the sales contract, due to environmental laws that typically hold the original polluter responsible for cleanup.
Step-by-step explanation:
Strawly Corp. wants to sell land which has toxic waste underground. It is false that Strawly Corp. can legally shift all the responsibility for environmental cleanup to the buyer by including such a provision in the sales contract. Environmental laws, like the ones that emerged after events such as the Love Canal Disaster, generally hold the polluter responsible for clean-up, regardless of any provisions in a sales contract. The ethical and environmental considerations involved in disposing of hazardous waste make it a complex legal matter, one where both industry and society must be socially sensitive to the risks and responsibilities associated with hazardous waste.
