Excessive release of C O _ 2 into the atmosphere results in

Excessive release of CO2C{O}_{2} into the atmosphere results in

Options

  1. Aglobal warming.
  2. Bpolar vortex.
  3. Cdepletion of ozone.
  4. Dformation of smog.

Correct answer

A. global warming.

Step-by-step solution

Carbon dioxide is very important for maintaining the climate which is suitable for our survival.
CO2{CO}_{2} has the property of trapping heat from the sun. So higher the level of carbon dioxide, the higher will be the heat trapped. This leads to the rise in the temperature of the earth, resulting in global warming.Therefore, we can say excessive release of CO2{CO}_{2} into the atmosphere results in global warming.
