Conservationists have had a perpetual conflict with the government of the United States
over the fast and rampant depletion of the earth's natural resources. They argue that the
United States must reduce its consumption level significantly to rectify this problem.
Which of the following, if true, would most strengthen the conservationists' argument?
A) The United States has been conserving forests for several years.
B) Most countries have not taken any measures to reduce their consumption levels of
natural resources.
C) There are several countries that have more requirements for resources than the
United States.
D) The United States accounts for one-third of the total world resource consumption.
E) New resource deposits are constantly being discovered.
The fact that the United States has been conserving forests for several years has
nothing to do with the conservationists' argument. Neither does the fact that there are
several countries that have more requirements for resources than the United States nor
the fact that new deposits are being discovered. The fact that most countries have not
taken any measures to reduce the consumption level does not provide support for the
conclusion. The fact that the United States consumes one third of all resources used in
the world supports the conclusion as the United States cannot increase consumption to
more than one third of the world's resources or they risk depleting the earth's resources
even faster.
