Answer: Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the statement from given option D consists of the audience, especially those who think that ethanol is a solution for a greener living. The task is to enlighten them about how to stabilize prices, the costs of energy and food and finally, the purpose is for a greener tomorrow.

The position of the statement is such that by reading the opening statement the writer is able to make a point by summing up the entire content using just a line. So, concluding that with all other given options, the author cannot summarise the whole idea in the content.
