In which situation will population growth and pollution pressure be most clearly linked?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Population grows fast and waste management is weak

Direct answer: A. Population growth can increase the amount of domestic and other waste because more people use goods, water and services. If collection, treatment, recycling and safe disposal systems do not grow with the population, waste may accumulate. This can pollute land and water and may worsen local environmental conditions. A correctly joins the cause—fast population growth—with the condition that increases the problem—weak waste management. B is wrong because declining population and strong management generally reduce this particular pressure, although pollution can still have other causes. C is wrong because without a settlement there is no settlement-related waste pressure. D is wrong because zero waste removes the stated source of pressure. A useful warning is that population size alone does not automatically cause pollution; management, consumption and technology also matter. Memory cue: more waste plus weak management means more pressure.
