The correct answer would be D.
The beach. The light breeze, the warm sun and the sound of the waves crashing on the shore. Clear blue skies and cream-colored sand, when I’m there, I can just feel all my anxiety escaping my body and the doubts in my head vanish. Even if I’m lying down on a sunbed, it calms my mind. Its almost as if you can smell the heat from the rays of sun, and the air is so clear and pure. All I can feel is myself in a melting into this world of tranquility and peace, where everything is calm.

A summary is a shortened version of a piece of writing (e.g. an excerpt, chapter, book, article). It should contain only the main ideas and most important supporting details presented in the text. The main idea is the most important point the author is making, and supporting details are pieces of information that explain, describe, illustrate, or expand the main idea.
The author of the given excerpt tells about how the Hudson River became polluted while people living around it aimed to gain wealth. That is the main idea of the excerpt, which is why option B is the correct one. The rest of the options are supporting details, which makes them incorrect.
