Oil Company Spokesperson: Although wind, solar, biofuels and nuclear sources all compete with fossil fuels as primary sources of energy, their contribution to the world’s total energy demand is limited because they are more expensive than fossil fuels and in the case of nuclear, limited by waste and disposal concerns. While we recognize the risks of climate change, we also conclude that the world will continue to demand fossil fuels for a majority of its primary energy supplies for many decades to come.
Which of the following statements, if true, would most strengthen the conclusion of the Spokesperson?
A. The risks of climate change will not force the governments across the world to levy heavy penalties on the use of fossil fuels.
B. The costs of disposing nuclear waste have not declined significantly in the last year.
C. In the last year, the combined contribution of wind, solar, biofuels and nuclear sources to the total energy requirement in the world was less than that of the fossil fuels.
D. Many high ranking government officials are shareholders in the oil marketing companies.
E. World’s total energy requirements are going to increase slowly but steadily over the next few decades.

-> contribution of renewable sources of energy is limited because they are more expensive.
-> so if fossil fuels become expensive due to heavy penalty, their demand will reduce.
-> hence, if govt does not levy heavy penalties, fossil fuels will remain less expensive than renewable sources, and world will continue to demand them.
