Antonio is a silversmith and works with various metals. At the end of the day, he reclaims and separates each metal by using an inexpensive toxic acid though other methods are available. The risk of fire as well as health dangers to Antonio is unknown. What should Antonio do?

A. dispose of the used acid by pouring it down the drain since the government will take care of any environmental issues that come from polluting the water.

B. get a fire insurance policy and make sure to visit the doctor regularly.

C. switch to another potentially less dangerous method of separating each metal.

D. pour it out in back of the studio in the gutter

Answer: C. switch to another potentially less dangerous method of separating each metal

Antonio should always put safety First in his work. The methods he's using are very dangerous to himself and the world at large. Whatever health issue that may befall him might be impossible to cure and even if he doesn't have any health effect, the planet suffers the toxic waste.
