The correct answer is - C. A floating pile of oil-soaked logs in the Cuyahoga River caught fire, and the resulting media attention led to the first Earth Day.

The Cuyahoga River is a river in the United States, more specifically in the northeastern part of the state Ohio. The river is a tributary to the Lake Erie.

Unfortunately, this river is best known fro being extremely polluted, polluted to a state where the pollutants in the river actually got on fire, and the river was indeed burning.

That has brought in a lot of attention throughout the country, and it quickly resulted in the formation of the environmental movement in the United States.
