Question

calla designs a model to test how the use of different combinations of energy resources would affect global temperatures. which of these combinations is likely to produce the lowest increase in temperature in her model? a. natural gas and solar b. geothermal and coal c. oil and nuclear fission d. wave action and wind

Explanation:

Wave action and wind are renewable energy sources that produce little to no greenhouse - gas emissions during operation, which contribute less to global temperature increase compared to fossil fuels like natural gas, coal, and oil. Geothermal is also a clean energy source but the combination with coal (a high - emitting fossil fuel) in option B is not ideal. Nuclear fission has a low carbon footprint but oil is a fossil fuel. Natural gas emits less than coal and oil but still emits greenhouse gases.

Answer:

D. Wave action and wind
