Which of the following is an example of biased language?

  1. Pollution levels are rising

  2. Pollution levels are relentlessly increasing

  3. Pollution levels are diminishing

  4. Pollution levels are greatly decreasing

The correct answer is: Pollution levels are relentlessly increasing

Biased language is any language that includes unfair or prejudiced opinions or specific views towards a particular group or topic. In this context, "relentlessly" carries a negative connotation, suggesting that the increase in pollution levels is happening without considering any opposing or mitigating factors. This word choice shows a clear bias towards one side of the argument. In contrast, options A, C, and D do not include any biased language and simply state the facts without any subjective opinions or language.
