Answer:

Sharing

Step-by-step explanation:

The sharing economy is also called collaborative consumption. It is a method adopted by individuals to take what they possess (good or service) and distribute (rent, sell or give them out) to other individuals that need them. It is bit different from the traditional method of sharing goods because in sharing economy the internet is actually the market place (or space).

With the sharing economy,

i. goods and services become cheaper and available.

ii. communities come together thereby increasing human communication and interaction.
