    The most important cause of air pollution is:

    The correction of is c)Burning fossils fuels.

    • Air pollution is a mixture of harmful substances from man-made and natural sources. Motor vehicle emissions, fuel oil and natural gas used to heat homes, by-products of manufacturing and power generation, especially coal-fired power plants, and smoke from chemical manufacturing are the main sources of anthropogenic air pollution. 
    • When fossil fuels burn, nitrogen oxides are released into the atmosphere, contributing to the formation of smog and acid rain. The most common nitrogen compounds released into the atmosphere by human activities are collectively called nitrogen oxides.
