Q. 6

Pollution amounts to slow murder. Regular exposure to industrial and vehicular pollution leads to life threatening diseases like asthma,
heart problems, cancer and various other diseases. Therefore, nobody has the right to pollute, rich or poor. Industrial and vehicular pollution
are growing rapidly across the country. It is not just metropolition centres that are heavily polluted today but also small and medium towns.
Pollution is growing faster than economy. This is because the western technology model, built on heavy use of energy and materials, is an
inherently highly toxic model. It produces huge amount of toxic pollutants, which can be controlled only if there is careful use of technology
and there is considerable discipline in its use.
Which of the following can be logically inferred from the paragraph?
i. The spread of pollution has gathered momentum more in rural areas than in urban.
ii. Proper planning in use of modern technology leads to less pollution in the environment.
iii. The industries which use higher level of energy create more pollution
iv. The smaller industrial units contribute proportionately to higher pollution
