I am hesitating between 4 options to answer the following question, which option should I choose?
Question: After a period of steady increase, the rate of coal consumption was 50% higher during 2009 than it was during the year 2000. If this trend continues, which impact will coal consumption most likely have on the environment after the year 2010?
Possibilities:
