I do think that the first paragraph could somewhat support the right answer here, although I think there is much stronger and more direct support in the third paragraph, where we are told that there was little urgency behind protecting ecosystems.

B is not supported, while it does talk about the limited interest, the passage never tells us that there were unlimited resources.

And I would not say it's necessary to reread. You should ideally read carefully enough the first time through to remember what the passage said, and then confirm that when you see an attractive answer choice.
