"Several lawmakers argue that constructing coal plants is a necessity. Which statements describe scientific evidence people can use to disagree with the lawmakers' claim? Check all that apply.

Smog and other forms of air pollution are an issue. Burning fossil fuels increases greenhouse gas emissions. Fossil fuels contribute to high ocean surface temperatures. Energy production rates are the highest with the use of coal plants. Forests are destroyed as storage facilities for electricity are constructed."

Answer:

Smog and other forms of air pollution are an issue. Burning fossil fuels increases greenhouse gas emissions. Fossil fuels contribute to high ocean surface temperatures.

Explanation:

Coal is a fossil fuel and although it is widely used for obtaining energy, in our society, it causes very high environmental damage that causes calamitous situations in our environment.

This is because fossil fuels, when burned, release many greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, which causes the destruction of the ozone layer, leaving our planet very exposed to soil radiation, which can cause several problems in our health and in the environment. One of these problems is the incidence of high temperatures over the waters of the oceans, which increases the degree of evaporation of these waters, interfering with the water cycle and can generate disastrous storms.

In addition, burning coal releases particles into the atmosphere that cause pollution and that can be inhaled by us, humans, and other animals, causing respiratory diseases.

People will be disagree with the lawmakers' claim because more coal plants produces more pollution in the environment and adversely affected health of the people.

Explanation:

Coal power plants produces electricity with a lot of smoke which pollute the environment. This smoke causes health hazards to human as well as living organism living in that environment and the whole ecosystem of that area will be disturbed so people can disagree with the construction of coal power plants.
