PLS!! HELP MEEEEEEEE FAST!!!

A student has written an argument and wants to revise it by adding a concluding statement. Read the argument and answer the question that follows.

Almost everywhere in the U.S., there is perfectly good water available from the kitchen faucet. Yet we spend more than $12 billion a year on bottled water, and we throw away 2.5 million plastic water bottles every hour. Bottled water is 2,000 times more expensive than “sink” water, and it isn’t any healthier for you. And even if we recycle all that plastic, which we don’t, that is a lot of waste.

Which sentence is the BEST conclusion to the argument?


A
There have been occasional incidents in which tainted city water meant that bottled water was a necessity.

B
There are many brands of bottled water, but most of them just use the same city water that flows into homes.

C
Clearly, the time has come for Americans to break their bottled-water habit and switch to reusable water containers.

D
Several soft drink companies started bottling and selling water when they realized people were drinking less cola.
