The correct answer is: "externality"

An externality is defined as any consequence of the economic activity, which can be either positive or negative, that is beared by an external third party. For example, the pollution generated in the factory during the production process is a negative externality that affects the society as a whole (not only the firm that produces cleaners or its consumers, that would be the "internal" parties involved in the sector).
