We waste a horribly large amount of paper every year. In fact, the sheets of paper wasted every year can cover the whole of Holland according to one estimate. If we could contain this wastage, we could almost prevent the earth growing any warmer in the near future because the trees saved would have absorbed the carbon dioxide produced by our cars.
Which of the following is an assumption involved in the argument given above?
A. The furniture manufacturing industry would not return to its traditional raw material with a vengeance in the coming years.
B. The automobile industry would not shift majorly to electric cars in the coming years.
C. Our scientists would not come up with new and better methods of storing carbon dioxide in the coming years.
D. For all practical purposes, the planets in the solar system cannot receive energy from any source other than the sun which has a constant output.
E. Replacing paper with soft documentation is not a feasible idea.
