Solution

  1. Human activity is harming our environment with carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases emitted due to pollution caused by automobiles, industries, and deforestation.
  2. Greenhouse gases act like a blanket, and trap a significant amount of heat coming from the Sun, thus causing global warming.
  3. The alternate sources of energy like solar, wind, ocean, nuclear, and tidal, among others have zero impact on the environment and are considered to be clean fuels, thus being a good candidate for checking global warming.

Due to sustainability and clean fuel alternate sources of energy are advantageous for checking global warming.
