Q.1	In a city, students were curious about where the power for their home, gadgets and appliances came from. They learned about different forms of energy and how they impact daily life. Which sources of energy were explored by the students?
	a) Solar energy		b) Wind energy
	c) Fossil fuels		d) All of the above

Q.2	While exploring climate change's impact on ocean health, a group of students identified a process significantly contributing to ocean acidification. What aspect of climate change primarily leads to the acidification of the ocean, affecting marine organisms?
	a) Decreased levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.		b) Elevated ocean temperatures foster favourable conditions for marine life.
	c) Increased carbon dioxide absorption by the oceans, altering their pH levels.		d) Reduced water pollution due to stricter environmental regulations.

Q.3	Tim's family planned a picnic near a lake. While they were there, dark clouds formed, and it began to rain heavily. Tim remembered studying about this stage of the water cycle. Which stage of the water cycle did the heavy rain represent?
	a) Evaporation		b) Condensation
	c) Collection		d) Precipitation

Q.4	In a study comparing two communities—one using well water and the other using water from a river—it was found that the community using river water had a higher incidence of waterborne diseases. What conclusion can be drawn from this data?
	a) Well water is naturally purified and free from contaminants.		b) The community using river water might have inadequate water treatment measures.
	c) Waterborne diseases are not affected by the source of water.		d) The study's results are inconclusive and do not allow for any conclusions to be drawn.

Q.5	This is not one of the possible adverse effects of the phenomena of global warming. Identify this.
	a) Extraordinary weather patterns		b) Retreat of glaciers
	c) An increase of UVB radiations		d) Rise in the sea levels

Q.6	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.7	The students are examining nuclear energy and its environmental implications. Considering their long-term impact and safety hazards, what constitutes the primary environmental concern linked to nuclear power plants?
	a) Dissemination of greenhouse gases leading to climate alteration.		b) Discharge of particulate matter resulting in regional air pollution.
	c) Accumulation of radioactive waste and the potential for accidents.		d) Contribution to soil degradation and ecosystem destabilisation.

Q.8	Max loves animals and often visits a nearby park to watch them. He noticed that the park was being divided by roads and buildings, making it harder for animals to move around freely. What is this breaking up of habitats called?
	a) Habitat preservation		b) Habitat enrichment
	c) Habitat fragmentation		d) Habitat expansion

Q.9	David is considering the environmental impact of his food choices. Which practice is most detrimental to sustainability in food consumption?
	a) Opting for reusable containers for storing leftovers.		b) Consuming excessive amounts of processed foods.
	c) Supporting local farmers by buying their produce.		d) Throwing away edible food due to cosmetic imperfections.

Q.10	Mega City is facing a severe air pollution crisis. To address this, the city council proposes two solutions: A) Building a new highway to bypass traffic congestion. B) Implementing a congestion pricing system where drivers pay a fee to enter the city centre during peak hours. Which solution is more likely to contribute to sustainable transportation goals?
	a) Solution A, as it will reduce traffic jams and encourage faster commutes.		b) Both solutions are equally effective in promoting sustainable transportation.
	c) Neither solution is effective, as air pollution requires stricter industrial emission regulations.		d) Solution B, as it will discourage private car usage and incentivise public transport or carpooling.
