Chọn C
Dịch bài đọc:
Mọi người đều mong giảm thiểu ô nhiễm. Nhưng vấn đề ô nhiễm là phức tạp như đúng tính nghiêm trọng của nó. Nó phức tạp bởi vì phần lớn ô nhiễm được gây ra bởi những thứ mang lại lợi ích con người. Chẳng hạn, khí thải từ ô tô gây nên phần lớn lượng ô nhiễm không khí. Nhưng ô tô lại cung cấp việc đi lại cho hàng triệu người. Các nhà máy thải ra phần lớn các chất làm ô nhiễm không khí, nhưng các nhà máy lại tạo ra việc làm cho rất nhiều người.
Vì vậy, để dừng hoặc giảm thiểu đáng kể ô nhiễm ngay lập tức, mọi người cần phải dừng việc sử dụng những thứ có lợi cho họ. Tất nhiên phần lớn mọi người đều không muốn làm như vậy. Nhưng ô nhiễm có thể được giảm thiểu từ từ bằng nhiều cách. Các nhà khoa học và các kỹ sư có thể nghiên cúu để tìm ra cách giảm thiểu lượng ô nhiễm mà các ô tô và nhà máy thải ra. Chính phủ cần thông qua và ban hành những đạo luật yêu cầu các việc kinh doanh và giao thông chấm dứt hoặc cắt giảm những hoạt động gây ô nhiễm nhất định.
