Question 2 • SC332 Environmental Science B

Orly wants to reduce her contribution to the greenhouse effect. What could she do?

Answer
A
grow crops without using fertilizers
B
use an electric car instead of a gasoline-powered car
C
cool her home using CFC-based refrigerants
D
burn natural gas without a carbon-dioxide filter

Explanation

Gasoline-powered cars release carbon dioxide when they burn fuel, and carbon dioxide contributes to the greenhouse effect. An electric car avoids those exhaust emissions while driving, so using one instead can reduce Orly’s contribution. Burning natural gas also releases carbon dioxide, and CFC-based refrigerants are harmful greenhouse gases.
