Solution

The correct option is B Earth's surface temperature will decrease
When carbon dioxide and other air pollutants are collected in the atmosphere they absorb sunlight that has bounced from the earth’s surface. This leads to an increase in the earth's average surface temperature and is called global warming. When there is no effect of the global warming, the temperature of the Earth's surface will decrease.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
