Which statement is supported by the evidence in this graph? a.) carbon dioxide was not present in the atmosphere until the 1940s. b.) carbon dioxide is contributing to rising global temperatures. c.) carbon dioxide emissions have no relation to temperature. d.) carbon dioxide levels and global temperature are inversely proportionate.

B.) Carbon dioxide is contributing to rising global temperatures.

Explanation:

Rise in the global temperature is the result of global warming. Global warming is caused due to release the greenhouse gases.  In the emitted greenhouse gases, percentage of carbon dioxide is the highest therefore, emission of carbon dioxide in high percentage causes global warming. The emissions of carbon dioxide have been increased within the last 50 years and are still increasing every year. Thus, carbon dioxide is contributing to rising global temperatures.
