Answer 1

Basic knowledge regarding the environment is important for the people to protect the earth from the pollution, majority of the pollution that happens on the earth are man made, and waste management is also very important ranging from industrial waste to household waste.

Complete answer:
A.In the question they gave that priest gave his son dried garlands, old books and some status to throw in the river, but this is not at all correct.
As we know that river is the flowing water body where we see the aquatic life deep inside the river, so that paper, status they may be done either with wood or any other material such as plaster of Paris, this makes water unfit for the aquatic life as they accumulate on the upper surface of water that decreases the sunlight travel to the underlying organisms, and oxygen, etc.

B. Instead of doing what his father said, he buried everything inside the soil, and this is very good thing, as the dried garland, and books this are organic material which may decompose by the microbes inside the soil and any organic compounds are added to the soil, That makes soil more fertile, It is very good sign regarding the son, as he is a very responsible citizen And he is doing proper waste disposal.
So I agree with the son.

Note: Any organic waste if buried in the soil, it gets decomposed by the various microorganisms that are available in the soil, so that nutrients that are present in the organic matter enters the soil, that makes the soil fertile, so that plants grow properly in the fertile soil.
