The sentence suggests that people should be less careless or indifferent about the environmental hazard caused by plastic bottles.
Looking at the options:
- "Cavalier" means showing no concern or being careless about something important.
- "Blase" means indifferent or unconcerned.
- "Overt" means obvious or open, which doesn't fit the context well.
- "Militant" means aggressive or combative, which is the opposite of what is needed here.
- "Disingenuous" means not sincere, unrelated to concern.
- "Vigilant" means watchful or careful, the opposite of careless.
Thus, the two best words to fill the blank are:
- B: blase
- C: cavalier
These words match the idea that we should be less indifferent or careless about consumption and environmental impact.
