Answer 1

The government’s decision to pass the Clean Air Act of 1970 reduced air pollutants and improved public health.

Reason: The Clean Air Act was specifically designed to control air pollution and protect public health; the other options (presidential disaster declaration, FEMA, Hazard Mitigation Program) address disasters/hazard response rather than directly regulating air quality.
