(a) Business people

(b) Government

(c) Scientists

(d) All the people

Answer 1

Environment protection is the responsibility of all the people. This is because environmental resources are used by all humans to satisfy their wants and demands. With the growing population, human wants are also increasing, which in turn leads to excessive extraction of resources and environmental degradation. Thus, in order to protect the interests of the future generations, which would also need natural resources, it is everyone’s moral responsibility to contribute to protecting the environment.

Hence, the correct answer is option (d).
