Q.1	Lucas decided to explore the forest and uncover its mysteries. Amidst his exploration, Lucas met an elder from his village who shared wisdom about the forest's significance. What role does the forest play in soil erosion?
	a) The forest has no impact on soil erosion or land stability.		b) It contributes to soil erosion by retaining excess water.
	c) It acts as a shield against soil erosion and maintains land stability.		d) It promotes landslides due to dense vegetation.

Q.2	Noah is exploring the impact of nutrient pollution on marine ecosystems. How does nutrient pollution, such as excess nitrogen and phosphorus, primarily affect marine habitats?
	a) Enhancing biodiversity by promoting the growth of various marine species.		b) Decreasing oxygen levels and causing harmful algal blooms.
	c) Balancing pH levels in affected marine environments.		d) Strengthening the resilience of marine food webs.

Q.3	A community is looking to reduce plastic waste in their neighbourhood. Which of the following initiatives does not align with waste reduction efforts? 1. Setting up more recycling bins in the area 2. Implementing a ban on single-use plastics 3. Distributing reusable shopping bags to residents 4. Encouraging the use of biodegradable plastics
	a) Only 1		b) Only 3
	c) Only 2 and 3		d) 1, 3 and 4

Q.4	A group of students conducted an experiment to understand the greenhouse effect and its implications. What conclusion did they likely draw about the greenhouse effect?
	a) The greenhouse effect has no impact on Earth's temperature regulation.		b) Greenhouse gases trap heat, contributing to warming the Earth's surface.
	c) Greenhouse gases prevent sunlight from reaching Earth, causing cooling.		d) The greenhouse effect only affects certain regions but not the entire planet.

Q.5	A rapidly growing city is planning its expansion. Developer A proposes building high-rise apartments with minimal green space to maximise housing, while Developer B advocates for incorporating several large parks and green corridors throughout the development. A heated debate ensues, with arguments for and against each approach. Which developer makes the stronger case for the city's long-term well-being, and why?
	a) Developer A, as maximising housing density reduces transportation demands and promotes social interaction.		b) Developer B, as urban green spaces contribute to cleaner air, lower temperatures, and improved mental health of residents.
	c) Both developers offer equally valid points, and the decision should be based on economic considerations.		d) Neither developer, as further studies are needed on the impact of green spaces in megacities.

Q.6	A city is experiencing a heat wave, and the local power plant is struggling to keep up with the increased demand for electricity.
