Critical or Logical Reasoning: Critical or Logical Reasoning Practice MCQ

Question Statement:

Pollution control can no longer be viewed as a national problem to be addressed by individual countries on the basis of national sovereignty. As the international effects of the Chernobyl nuclear accident made clear, pollutants do not respect political boundaries; thus every nation has a legitimate stake in the environmental practices and policies of its neighbors.

Which of the following would be the most logical continuation of the argument above?

So, growth of the nuclear power industry should be halted until more rigorous safety procedures have been developed.

Hence, attempts made by one nation to impose its environmental policies on another should be resisted–if necessary, by force.

Consequently, issues of pollution should be handled by an international commission with the authority to set policies for all nations.

Thus, every nation should pledge itself to environmental policies that will minimize the danger to its neighbors.

As a result, only the ultimate emergence of a sovereign world government will resolve today’s most pressing environmental dilemmas.
