expands landfills
enhances greenhouse gas emissions
reduces demand for new raw materials
6 multiple choice 2 points
what is the primary goal of reducing food waste?
conserve resources and minimize pollution
encourage overconsumption
increase greenhouse gas emissions
ignore the impact on biodiversity

Explanation:

• For question 4: Sustainability requires individual action. Ignoring environmental issues or focusing only on personal needs is counter - productive. Each individual making mindful choices (e.g., reducing waste, conserving energy) contributes to a healthier planet. Saying there is no significant role is incorrect as collective individual actions matter.
• For question 5: Recycling does not increase pollution, expand landfills, or enhance greenhouse gas emissions. It reduces the demand for new raw materials by re - using existing ones.
• For question 6: Reducing food waste is about conserving the resources (land, water, energy) used in food production and minimizing pollution (e.g., methane from rotting food in landfills). Encouraging overconsumption, increasing greenhouse gas emissions, or ignoring biodiversity impact are not goals of reducing food waste.

Answer:

1. Making mindful choices that contribute to a healthier planet
2. Reduces demand for new raw materials
3. Conserve resources and minimize pollution
