Critical Reasoning

Addressed to an Instructor

Advocates argue that five-cent bottle deposits charged on beverage containers are necessary for environmental protection because they help to ensure that plastic and glass bottlesas well as aluminium cans are recycled .This is , the advicates say,because the five-cent redemption programs provide a strong incentive to return the used containers to recycling facilities .However, a recent study found that states without a bottle deposit had more success in implementing comprehensive recycling programs , which include paper,plastics , and steel , in addition to the beverage containers , than did states with a bottle deposit law .
The answer to which of the following questions would be most useful in analyzing the significance of the study referenced above ?
(A) Did any of the states surveyed losr revenue on the bottle deposit program ?
(B) Do the citizens of the states that were studied prefer 5 cent redemption programs on beverage containers ?

(D) Did the citizens of the states with and without bottle deposit programs purchase compare number of beverages in plastic,glass and aluminium containers ?
(E) Were the bottle deposit and the comprehensive recycling programs given equal funding ?
