Question

what are two ways to address the impact on the environment?
increasing rapid growth and development
encouraging reforestation and sustainable practices
using plastic and coal as power sources

Explanation:

• Option "increasing rapid growth and development" often causes more environmental harm (e.g., deforestation, pollution from industrialization).
• "Encouraging reforestation and sustainable practices" helps: reforestation sequesters carbon, provides habitats; sustainable practices (like renewable energy, eco - friendly agriculture) reduce resource depletion and pollution.
• "Using plastic and coal as power sources" is harmful: burning coal emits greenhouse gases and pollutants; plastic burning or improper disposal pollutes land, air, and water. So this option is incorrect. Thus, the correct way to address environmental impact is "encouraging reforestation and sustainable practices".

Answer:

B. encouraging reforestation and sustainable practices
