Since City X reduced the frequency with which its service vehicles pick up recyclable materials from residences to transport to its recycling center, the volume of material that its service vehicles transport to landfills for permanent disposal has increased to unmanageable levels. However, the city cannot increase the frequency of either its trash pickup or its recycling pickup at city residences.
Based only on the information above, which of the following strategies seems most appropriate for City X in the interest of reducing the volume of material that the city's service vehicles transport to landfills ?
(A) Provide larger recycling containers to residents of the city.
(B) Establish a community program to increase awareness of the benefits of recycling.
(C) Establish additional recycling centers as a near as possible to the city's residential areas.
(D) Provide incentives to the city's residents to reuse, rather than discard for pick up by the city's service vehicles, whatever they can.
(E) Ease restrictions on the types of materials the city's service vehicles will pick up for transport to its recycling centers.
OA : D
I found the answer choices to be too close. I was confused between picking A or C. Clearly, my answer choices were wrong, when compared to the OA. I would like to hear answers from others - preferably some Experts, with an explanation for eliminating a particular answer choice.
