Theseus and Hippolyta bookend A Midsummer Night's Dream, appearing in the daylight at both the beginning and the end of the play's main action. ... Whereas an important element of the dream realm is that one is not in control of one's environment, Theseus and Hippolyta are always entirely in control of theirs.

Answer:
The second sentence:
The scientist said there is only one thing to be done to save our river: "Stop polluting the groundwater with fertilizers."
Explanation:
The other sentences do not make good use of the colons.
Colons are used between two independent clauses, e.g.
(He got what he worked for: he really earned that promotion.)
They are also used before a full sentence statement, like in this Question.
The other three sentences do not put the colons in the right places. Only the second one does so.
