Question 4 • 25-26 TX-Physics A-CR

Which area of concern for environmental lawyers has grown rapidly in the past 20 years?

Answer
A
the replacement and disposal of electronic devices
B
the genetic engineering of biological heart pacemakers
C
the development and distribution of cancer-fighting drugs
D
the advances in vaccinations to prevent once-deadly diseases, such as polio

Explanation

Electronic devices are replaced frequently, and their disposal can create large amounts of electronic waste containing hazardous materials. Managing this waste and regulating its disposal have therefore become rapidly growing concerns for environmental lawyers. The other choices focus mainly on medical research and treatment rather than environmental law.
