Community Activists Want to Get Residents of a Town to Support

Community activists want to get residents of a town to support legislation that bans a pesticide that the activists feel is harmful to human health. The town depends on agriculture for jobs. The education level of the town is low and the poverty level is high. The pesticide in question has shown to increase crop production and more farmers are using it because it allows them to grow more and hire more people. There are scientific studies that show that the pesticide is harmful if those working in the fields do not take certain precautions such as protective clothing. The best way for the activists to persuade the residents to support the legislation would be to

A) tell them what they think are the harmful effects of the pesticide.
B) understand human decision-making so they can change how the people perceive the problem.
C) invite farmers to the meeting to explain the chemicals in the pesticide.
D) have the residents read all of the scientific studies.
E) have the residents brainstorm on ways to create jobs that do not involve agriculture.
