Explanation:

To solve this reading comprehension question, we analyze each option:

• Option A: There's no info in the passage (not provided here, but typically) to support that "going green" is expensive and short - lived.
• Option B: It's a logical conclusion related to environmental issues. If no action is taken against global warming, the planet (ecosystems, climate, etc.) will face negative consequences (suffer). This aligns with general environmental knowledge about the impact of unaddressed global warming.
• Option C: The passage (not shown) likely doesn't state hybrid cars/trucks are the future of automobiles, as this is a very specific claim without context here.
• Option D: The scientific consensus is that global warming is a significant issue, so this option goes against established knowledge and is unlikely to be a valid conclusion.

Answer:

B. if nothing is done to stop global warming, the planet will suffer
