Critical Reasoning (CR) | Re: In setting environmental standards for industry and others to meet, it

Understanding the argument -
In setting environmental standards for industry and others to meet, it is inadvisable to require the best results that state-of-the-art technology can achieve. - Fact. Also, notice that it talks about industry and others (and not just industry). In essence, it says that the standards should not require industry and others to achieve the best results that state-of-the-art technology can achieve. For example - The Guinness World Record for the fastest car in the world is the Thrust SSC, driven by Andy Green. The Thrust SSC set the land speed record on October 15, 1997, at 763.035 mph (1,227.986 km/h). So the result of this car, which has a speed record of 1227.986 km/hr, should not become the standard for the automotive industry in the US, India, or Europe, or for that matter, anywhere for all the cars to meet this speed criteria. This will be ridiculous. Isn't it? Yes. That is what this statement is saying: let's not set standards like this.
