With no dredging, central park's ponds and reservoir have

down former streets and invading empty foundations.

purpose?
o
a. the passage shows the effects of human activity on central park

change central park to show that nature will eventually destroy
what people have built.
c. the passage compares the central park from before and from
during a posthuman world to underscore that pollution levels will
remain the same.
d. the passage traces several events in the order that they will occur
to highlight how people have harmed the environment in central
