Question

A company, Green Fuel, argues that its new biofuel product is entirely eco-friendly because it is made from renewable resources. Green Fuel claims that since the product is derived from organic matter, it has zero negative impact on the environment.
Which of the following, if true, most weaken Green Fuel’s argument above?

• A. The process of producing the biofuel emits significant greenhouse gases due to the energy required for extraction and processing
• B. Although the biofuel is renewable, its widespread cultivation leads to deforestation and the destruction of natural habitats
• C. Production of biofuel is significantly more costly than extraction of fuel from non renewable sources
• D. Both a) and b) above

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Both (a) and (b) weaken Green Fuel’s argument by showing that the production process and the cultivation of biofuel lead to environmental harm, contradicting the claim that the product has zero negative impact.
Thus, the correct answer is Option (D).
