based on current climate trends, which technological innovation could help solve an environmental issue that is likely to threaten Australia in the future?

A. water catchments could help stop overfishing.
B. Water catchments could help slow climate change.
C. Using electric cars could help slow climate change.
D. Using electric cars could help lessen droughts.

C. Using electric cars could help slow climate change.

While all options have the potential to contribute to solving environmental issues, the most direct and effective solution to slow climate change would be Option C: Using electric cars. The burning of fossil fuels in conventional cars is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, which in turn leads to climate change. By transitioning to electric cars, which produce zero emissions directly, Australia could significantly reduce its carbon footprint and help mitigate the impacts of climate change.
