This week marks the 10th anniversary of the Alar apple scare, in which many American consumers were driven into a panic following the release of a report by an environmental organization claiming that apples containing the chemical Alar posed a serious health threat to preschoolers.

A. by Consumers Union
B. by a health center
C. through a news agency
D. through the government
