correct answer to each of the questions.
Though the conservation movement had European roots, many observers maintain that the United
States has emerged as the world's leader in environmentalism.
The transcendentalism of the early 1800s and its celebration of the natural world arrived just in
time to be trampled underfoot by the ravages of the Industrial Revolution. As forests disappeared
under the ax of reckless timber barons, coal became a popular source of energy. Unfettered use of coal
in homes and factories resulted in horrific air pollution in cities like London, Philadelphia, and Paris.
In the 1850s, a carnival huckster named George Gale heard about an immense California redwood
that was over 600 years old when Jesus was born. Upon seeing the magnificent tree, nicknamed The
Mother of the Forest, Gale hired men to cut the tree down so that its bark could be displayed in his
sideshow. The reaction to Gale's stunt, however, was swift and ugly: "To our mind, it seems a cruel


idea, a perfect desecration, to cut down such a splendid tree ... what in the world could have possessed
any mortal to embark in such a speculation with this mountain of wood?," wrote one editor.
The growing realization that human industry was obliterating irreplaceable wilderness -- and
endangering human health -- resulted in the earliest efforts at managing natural resources. In 1872,
Yellowstone National Park was created, the first of what became one of America's best ideas: a
network of national parks that were strictly off-limits to exploitation.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions.
Urbanization degrades the environment, according to conventional wisdom. This view has led

many developing countries to limit rural - urban migration and curb urban expansion. But this view is
incorrect. There are a number of reasons urbanization can be good for the environment, if managed
properly.


First, urbanization brings higher productivity because of its positive externalities and economies of
scale. Asian urban productivity is more than 5.5 times that of rural areas. The same output can be
produced using fewer resources with urban agglomeration than without. In this sense, urbanization
reduces the ecological footprint. The service sector requires urbanization because it needs a
concentration of clients. As services generally pollute less than manufacturing, this aspect of
urbanization is also beneficial to the environment.
Second, for any given population, the high urban density is benign for the environment. The urban
economics literature shows that compactness is a key determinant of energy use. High density can
make public transport more viable and reduce the length of trips. Urban living encourages walking and
cycling rather than driving. Third, environment-friendly infrastructure and public services such as
piped water, sanitation, and waste management are much easier and more economical to construct,
maintain, and operate in an urban setting. Urbanization allows more people to have access to
environment-friendly facilities and services at affordable prices.
Fourth, urbanization drives innovation, including green technologies. In the long term,
environment-friendly equipment, machines, vehicles, and utilities will determine the future of the
green economy. Green innovations in Asia's cities will be supported by the region's vast market as the
billions of people who will be buying energy-efficient products will create opportunities and incentives
for entrepreneurs to invest in developing such products. Finally, the higher standard of living
associated with urbanization provides people with better food, education, housing, and health care.
Urban growth generates revenues that fund infrastructure projects, reducing congestion and improving
public health. Urbanization fosters a pro-environment stance among property owners and the middle
class, which is crucial for the introduction and enforcement of environmental laws and regulations.
Of course, urbanization also comes with costs. Millions of people are migrating to Asian cities and
companies are locating there to employ them. Urban sprawl and industrial activities, such as power
generation, transportation, construction, garbage and waste disposal, harm the environment. An

assessment of the impact of urbanization on the environment must balance its benign and adverse
effects.
