What causes the global warming?
- A. Burning of fossil fuels
- B. Deforestation
- C. Industrialization
- D. All of the above
Step-by-step solution
Global warming is primarily caused by an increase in greenhouse gases like CO₂, methane, and nitrous oxide. Burning fossil fuels (A) releases CO₂ from stored carbon. Deforestation (B) removes trees that absorb CO₂, reducing carbon sinks. Industrialization (C) often involves fossil fuel combustion and releases various greenhouse gases. Therefore, all three factors significantly contribute to global warming.
