Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Sources of environmental problems include industrialization, careless mining and oil drilling, spread of nuclear contamination, and rampant forest cutting. Poor air quality plagues hundreds of cities throughout the region. Water supplies are contaminated by industrial pollutants and (in some cases) raw sewage. The city of Chernobyl was devastated by a nuclear accident in 1986, and has been evacuated. The end of the Soviet era initially brought short-term improvement as many factories closed because they were no longer economically viable. Today, as industry picks up, problems are rising again.
