Alfonso Diaz · Answer 2

The correct answers are A) lack of jobs due to high unemployment, C) a rise in prejudice and racial discrimination, and E) a loss of housing due to natural disasters.

These are some examples of push factors: lack of jobs due to high unemployment, a rise in prejudice and racial discrimination, and a loss of housing due to natural disasters.

A push factor is a condition that forces people to leave their native countries in pursuit of a better life and economic conditions. People that live in poor countries or in civil wars, leave their places for many push factors. They could be lack of jobs due to high unemployment, a rise in prejudice and racial discrimination, and a loss of housing due to natural disasters. That is why immigration is a problem that countries in Europe face and also the United States.
