Question

Burning of fossil fuels and deforestation results in rise of the amount of $C{O}_2$ in the atmosphere.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A

True

Burning of fossil fuels and deforestation results in rise in the amount of $C{O}_2$ in the atmosphere, this leads to enhanced Green House Effect which ultimately causes global warming which is responsible for melting of polar ice caps, etc. The combustion of fossil fuels also increases the amount of suspended particles in air. These suspended particles could be unburnt carbon particles or substances called hydrocarbons.
