As much as 25 percent of the fruits and vegetables grown in Chinese agricultural regions rot before they can be transported the
long distances to market. which of the following is a smaller, more manageable problem that contributes to this complex problem? A. Conserving Earth's limited fossil fuel reserves
B. Reducing global emissions of greenhouse gases
C. Developing effective methods of food preservation
D. Preventing extinction of endangered species
C. Developing effective methods of food preservation
Explanation:
The development of effective methods of food preservation is a much more smaller and manageable problem that contributes to the complex problem.
The percentage of food rotting is not as a result of lack of an effective preservation technique as highlighted in the passage. It is due to the long distances of agricultural area from where the farms are located.
To cut the loss, efficient and rapid transportation techniques needs to be put in place to carry the fruits and vegetables to the area where they are needed.
This is the most complex problem that if solved can peg back food rot.
Additional measures should be put in place to preserve the food.
