Read the passage.
Our community has done a wonderful job of creating and participating in forward-thinking eco-centered recycling programs for many years. It’s time we took the next step and considered community composting. We’ve done a great job with paper, aluminum, glass, and plastic, but now it’s time to address food waste head on. The latest data shows that of the millions of tons of food scraps discarded every year, only a small percentage—less than 6 percent—is kept out of landfills.
Which statement best explains why the author uses juxtaposition in the passage?
The author wants to emphasize that recycling plastic waste is more difficult than composting food waste.
The author wants to stress that food scraps pose less of a threat to the community than aluminum waste.
The author wants to illustrate that paper and glass recycling has reduced the amount of waste in landfills.
The author wants to highlight the fact that food waste can be addressed in the same way as other waste.
