D is a run on sentence. There is a comma splice, which means that the writer used a comma to join sentences where there should not be a comma. To make D a correct sentence, it would be best to put a period where the comma is.

It is a disgrace when people refuse to practice pollution control. Air pollution continues to worsen.

Hope that helps!
