Detailed Solution

(I) Cl2C = CCl2 releases Cl which destroys ozone layer. Hence, use of liquefied CO, in dry cleaning is desirable.
(II) SO2 and Cl2 are bleaching agents but cause atmospheric pollution. Use of H2O2 is desirable, since waste is H2O which drains out.
H2O2 H2O+O
(III) Use of biodiesel releases no CO hence causes no pollution.
