According to me, both the arguments are true. Because reducing pollution at one level and making it to increase at other levels may cause critical problems.
As we all know acid rains are caused by health hazard gases which are released by AC, Vehicles and household materials. These dangerous gases cause depletion in the ozone layer which protects us from strong UV Rays. If we conclude this all as not a problem then we can say pollution in the above atmosphere is not a problem but in the reality of life, this all is the worst condition facing at the present situation. So both the arugment are important.

Yes, I too think the answer is C because even if the pollution is expelled up to the stratosphere it can cause acid rains which are eventually harmful to plant and animal lives.

The answer is C because the chimney is also polluted upper atmosphere which directly impacted on the ozone layer.

If the smoke is released at upper atmosphere. It will eventually deplete the environment at ground level. Pollution will deplete the entire atmosphere. So, Shouldn't B be the answer ?

I think the given option A is right answer because the pollution at ground level causes more effect to living things than upper pollution.
