When is the precautionary principle applied in environmental policy?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: When serious harm is possible but scientific certainty is incomplete

The precautionary principle guides decisions when an activity may cause serious or irreversible environmental harm but available science cannot establish the risk with complete certainty. It supports preventive action, risk assessment, monitoring and safer alternatives rather than waiting until damage is undeniable. It does not mean that every uncertain activity must be permanently banned. Thus A states the principle accurately.
