The electricity board, in an effort to reduce energy consumption, is looking to switch to alternative measures. It has come up with two options. The board has sent out an opinion survey to know the view of the consumers about these measures.

Option B: Provide incentive: Benefits should be given to those who use less electricity.

decision as they are already paying more for electricity usage which can lead to protests against the government. Considering all the above points, I am of the opinion that providing benefits to the people who utilize less energy consumption would be a more beneficial and convincing choice than an electricity cost increase.
