Explanation
The sentence contrasts the older generation, which treated habitat protection as an “afterthought,” with the new generation, whose groups are devoted entirely to protecting native ecosystems.
Both foreground and prioritize mean to give something primary importance or attention.
foreground = put something in the most prominent position
prioritize = treat something as more important than other things
Answer: A,D
