HELP Using your knowledge of nonrenewable energy sources, choose the answer that BEST describes the environmental impact (s) associated with these energy sources. Non renewable energy sources such as coal, oil and natural gas contribute to air pollution and cost more money.

Non renewable energy sources do not really have any major impacts on the environment.

Solar energy is the best type of energy for the environment.

Non renewable resources such as coal, oil and natural gas contribute to air pollution, water pollution and global warming.

Non renewable resources such as coal, oil and natural gas contribute to air pollution, water pollution and global warming.

Explanation:

Non-renewable energy sources are the energy sources that do not naturally replenish themselves. At some points in the nearest future, their sources would be become depleted.

Non-renewable energy sources such as coal, crude oil and natural gas contribute to the pollution of the environment in varying degrees. They require burning and this process leads to the release of gases such as carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, oxides of sulfur and nitrogen,methane, water vapor, etc.

The released gases often posses different threats to organisms in the environment at certain level, constituting what is known as environmental pollution. Some of them dissolve in rain water to cause acid rain, some are directly poisonous when inhaled by living organisms, while a host of the pollutants absorb radiation from the sun and cause the warming of the planet, a phenomenon known as global warming.

Crude oil spillage or that of the any of its derivatives cause various environmental problems. They are poisonous to aquatic lives and render water useless for humans.
