Which of the following cannot be used as a method to reduce air pollution?

Answer 1

The correct option is D Burning garbage in open

Air pollution can be reduced by:

$\bullet$ Using a bicycle for transportation - This reduces the emission of harmful gases into air.

$\bullet$ Reducing the use of firecrackers - This reduces the emission of thick smoke which pollutes the air.

$\bullet$ Planting more trees - Trees clean the air by taking in carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen during respiration.

But, burning of garbage releases a large amount of smoke which leads to air pollution
