Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Talking to a local environmental group about solutions would be the best choice as they can provide guidance and support in addressing the issue. Lobbying their elected representatives or picketing the factory may be less effective as they may not have the power to make significant changes or may not take action quickly enough. Identifying the cause of the changes and identifying the problem are important steps, but they do not provide a clear plan of action to solve the issue.
