Detailed explanation-1: -When fossil fuels are burned, they release large amounts of carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, into the air. Greenhouse gases trap heat in our atmosphere, causing global warming. Already the average global temperature has increased by 1C.
Detailed explanation-2: -Human Activity Is the Cause of Increased Greenhouse Gas Concentrations. Over the last century, burning of fossil fuels like coal and oil has increased the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2). This increase happens because the coal or oil burning process combines carbon with oxygen in the air to make CO2.
Detailed explanation-3: -When fossil fuels are burnt, it produces oxides of nitrogen and sulphur. These gases cause inhalation problems and in presence of rain forms acid rain. The burning of fossil fuels also increases the amount of suspended particles in the air that reduce the visibility.
Detailed explanation-4: -Effects of greenhouse gases They cause climate change by trapping heat, and they also contribute to respiratory disease from smog and air pollution. Extreme weather, food supply disruptions, and increased wildfires are other effects of climate change caused by greenhouse gases.
Detailed explanation-5: -They cause Air Pollution. They cause Global Warming. They are Exhaustible Natural Resources (available in limited amounts) They cause Air Pollution. They cause Global Warming. They are Exhaustible Natural Resources (available in limited amounts)
