Answer 1

Answer: (A)

They are eco-friendly

Fertilizers and pesticides are not so eco- friendly as their excessive use causes killing of lady bugs and flower bugs, which naturally protect the crops. When these pesticides mixes with water and goes to river, it makes the river water not only unfit but dangerous for human beings and animals.
