Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Many new pollutants have been introduced or identified since World War II, such as lead, asbestos, and chlorofluorocarbons. This has led to new regulations and efforts to address these pollutants. The other choices are incorrect as air pollution has improved in some U.S. cities, the federal government has continued to use economic incentives to reduce pollution, and the United States does not pollute more per capita than China and India.
