B Correct answer
Explanation

DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) is a persistent organic pollutant. While it is a famous pesticide, it is not primarily known as an ozone-depleting substance; however, in the context of older multiple-choice questions, it is often grouped with environmental pollutants. Note: Methyl bromide is a more accurate ozone-depleting pesticide, but it is not an option here.
