The form of energy that is closely connected to climate change is coal. Coal is a fossil fuel that is burned to produce electricity, but it also releases a large amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere when burned. This CO2 is a greenhouse gas that traps heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to global warming and climate change. By using coal as a source of energy, we contribute to the increase in greenhouse gas emissions and the negative impacts of climate change. Therefore, it is important to transition to cleaner and more sustainable sources of energy like wind, hydroelectric, and solar power.
