The correct option is B Thermal pollution
Thermal pollution is the release of any kind of heated gases or heated water into the environment. The envelope of warmer air over cities adversely affect their climate. The heated water released by the thermal power stations or other industrial establishments into rivers and lakes causes a decrease in the oxygen dissolved in water which kills aquatic life including fish.
