Question

which is the most sustainable practice?

a. using more wind power

b. building more coal power plants

c. drilling deeper for oil

d. using natural gas for electricity

Explanation:

Sustainable practices aim to meet present needs without harming future generations, often focusing on renewable energy and reducing reliance on non - renewable, polluting resources. Wind power is a renewable energy source. Coal power plants (option B) burn non - renewable coal, releasing large amounts of greenhouse gases and pollutants. Drilling deeper for oil (option C) relies on non - renewable oil and has environmental risks like oil spills. Natural gas (option D), while cleaner than coal, is still a non - renewable fossil fuel. Wind power is renewable, produces little to no pollution during operation, and has a much lower environmental impact in the long run compared to the other options.

Answer:

A. Using more wind power
