Yes this one was a little tough

B is wrong because it does not address reducing the levels of carbon dioxide enough to halt global warming. This answer would be consistent wiht a .00001% decrease in emissions, which possibly isn't enough to halt global warming obviously.


D on the other hand allows that it is possible to reduce CO2 emissions to halt global warming and best supports the use of the analogy

Am I missing something? The PT50 S4-16 I have is a different question, it's about shoppers not emissions.

The answer is C, although B is very tempting.

In terms of B the shopper bought many unnecessary items BUT they are still each 1/2 the cost of the items the shopping list person bought. In addition, who says that the shopping list guy didn't have unnecessary items on his list?

But if all the items were very expensive to begin with it makes sense that his basket as a whole could be worth more even with a 50% discount.
