Which of the following is a negative consequence of scientific advancements on society?
a. increased life expectancy
b. increased pollution
c. new energy resources
d. all of the above

The correct answer is B. Increased pollution

Explanation

Scientific advances are the set of objects developed by scientists, engineers, and inventors to improve and facilitate people's lives. However, many of these objects cause environmental impacts such as pollution, for example, factories produce toxic gases, smoke and other gases that cause the Earth's atmosphere to deteriorate. In addition, some wastes are thrown into rivers, contaminating water sources until they arrive at the sea. Also, some objects such as single-use plastics such as food packaging or plastic bags cause contamination. Finally, products such as cars, motorcycles, trucks, trains, and others use products such as petroleum-based gasoline or coal to work, which causes a double impact, because the Earth must first be exploited and by the polluting gases produced by the combustion of these minerals. So, the correct answer is B. Increased pollution.
