Q.1	Sofia is exploring the impact of food transportation on greenhouse gas emissions. Which food choice generally requires the least transportation and thereby has a lower carbon footprint?
	a) Seasonal vegetables from a nearby farm.		b) Exotic fruits imported from distant countries.
	c) Packaged frozen foods from international markets.		d) Canned goods transported via air freight.

Q.2	Lisa, during her school trip, visited the local water treatment plant. She observed a fascinating process called desalination. In which of the following situations would desalination likely be most beneficial?
	a) A community located near a freshwater river.		b) A region with heavy rainfall throughout the year.
	c) An island surrounded by salty ocean water.		d) A mountainous area with natural springs.

Q.3	In a study comparing two communities—one using well water and the other using water from a river—it was found that the community using river water had a higher incidence of waterborne diseases. What conclusion can be drawn from this data?
	a) Well water is naturally purified and free from contaminants.		b) The community using river water might have inadequate water treatment measures.
	c) Waterborne diseases are not affected by the source of water.		d) The study's results are inconclusive and do not allow for any conclusions to be drawn.

Q.4	An individual aims to make more environmentally conscious choices in their daily consumption. What habit should they adopt to support this goal?
	a) Regularly discarding and replacing electronic devices		b) Prioritising products with excessive packaging for better protection
	c) Opting for products made from recycled or sustainable materials		d) Buying single-use plastic items in large quantities for convenience

Q.5	Sarah is concerned about the chemicals used in water treatment. What are some of the potential drawbacks of using chlorine for disinfection? 1. Chlorine can react with organic matter in the water to form disinfection byproducts, some of which are considered harmful to human health. 2. Chlorine can contribute to taste and odour problems in the water. 3. Chlorine can be harmful to aquatic life if discharged into the environment without proper treatment.
	a) Only 1		b) Only 2
	c) Both 1 and 2		d) 1, 2 and 3

Q.6	A manufacturing plant heavily relies on coal for energy generation. Over time, nearby vegetation starts to show signs of browning, and local residents complain about respiratory issues. What environmental impact is most likely a result of this plant's operation? 1. Soil enrichment 2. Reduced air particulate matter 3. Increased carbon sequestration 4.
