Coal is rich in carbon, and when burned, it releases large amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere. CO2 is a greenhouse gas, which traps heat and causes the Earth's temperature to rise, contributing to global warming. Coal combustion also produces other pollutants like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, which can worsen air quality and contribute to smog and acid rain. The impact of coal on the climate is significant, making it a key focus of efforts to reduce global emissions and mitigate climate change.","mcq_options":[{"right":"no","answer":"It reduces global warming"},{"right":"yes","answer":"It contributes to global warming through carbon dioxide emissions"},{"right":"no","answer":"It improves air quality"},{"right":"no","answer":"It has no impact on the climate"}],"multi_answers":"no","subject_terms":[{"id":1846,"title":"Geography of the United States","slug":"geography-of-the-united-states"}],"topic_terms":[{"id":1759,"title":"Energy Sources in the United States","slug":"energy-sources-in-the-united-states"},{"id":1756,"title":"Natural Resources in the United States","slug":"natural-resources-in-the-united-states"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq\/11438","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/mcq"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3502"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11438"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11438"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic?post=11438"},{"taxonomy":"subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/subject?post=11438"},{"taxonomy":"education_level","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/education_level?post=11438"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
