Answer:

3). It passed a law to decrease pollution created by the oil industry.

Step-by-step explanation:

The government cannot enforce fuel efficiency; not all government are communist governments. The government cannot just purchase gas and distribute it. And the government cannot just order companies to reduce gas/fuel prices.
