- A. By increasing energy prices
- B. By developing cleaner technologies
- C. By discouraging the use of renewable resources
- D. By limiting energy consumption
Answer
By developing cleaner technologies
Explanation
The correct option is "By developing cleaner technologies". By developing cleaner technologies is right because it directly matches Environmental issues and energy decisions: Explain how science can identify environmental problems linked to energy-resource use.. The other options are less suitable because they change the required Physics relationship, confuse the relevant energy store or use a distractor that does not answer the question.
Common mistake
Misunderstanding Science's Role
Students often think that science alone can solve all environmental problems linked to energy-resource use.
Emphasize that while science can identify problems, it may not have the power to solve them without political, social, and economic support.
