Answer 1

The statement is true.

Explanation:

• The long prevalence of poverty in Africa has kept it aloof from newer technologies.

• This has directly resulted in making the African populations using the same old 'non-environment-friendly' vehicles for years after years.

• The air pollution caused by such vehicles is in a number of ways more in rate than the industrialized regions.

• Despite such vehicles having been declared as main environment pollutants, poverty has disabled the majority population of Africa from upgrading to vehicles with less polluting engines.
