I think the answer is A) Taxes on the consumption of the product because it directly targets the problem at its source.

Ah, I see what they're going for. D, legal controls to limit pollution levels, is the correct answer. Gotta keep those industries in check!

I'm leaning towards A, taxes on the consumption of the product. Hitting the consumers where it hurts might be the best way to discourage pollution.

Hmm, I think option B, subsidies to the producers, is the odd one out here. Seems counterintuitive to reward the polluters.
