Option 1: a photo of a landfill full of clothing and a graph showing statistics on how much clothing gets thrown away.

Why: the photo provides an immediate emotional (pathos) impact that grabs attention, while the graph supplies clear, credible evidence (logos). Together they form a persuasive combination—visual shock plus data-backed facts—supported by research. The other choices are either too text-heavy/limited in appeal, irrelevant to waste, or purely data-driven without the emotional element that helps persuade a general audience.

Tip: cite sources on the graph, include a caption for the photo, and ensure image rights/attribution.
