Question

What is a major limitation of science when trying to solve environmental problems?

A. We can never make recommendations for solutions to problems using science.
B. We cannot perform global experiments to test for outcomes associated with large-scale problems such as climate change.
C We can never control enough variables to draw conclusions
D We cannot ever generate enough observations to coatribute to theory.

Answer 1

Answer: B. We cannot perform global experiments to test for outcomes associated with large-scale problems such as climate change.

Step-by-step explanation:

Environmental problems are associated with the change in the climatic conditions. These changes cannot be measured experimentally at a global level. As the climatic condition may vary from region to region all over the globe. It will be difficult to mimic the climatic conditions in experimental set-up and to draw results relating to the change in the climatic conditions.

Therefore, the problems of climate change cannot be determined experimentally at a global level.
