question 16 of 25
what is one way to make earths coal supply last longer?
a. install scrubbers in power plants.
b. capture and store carbon.
c. replant diminishing forests.
d. teach public energy conservation.

Explanation:

If the public conserves energy, less coal will be used for power - generation, thus making the coal supply last longer. Installing scrubbers in power plants reduces pollution but doesn't affect the rate of coal consumption. Capturing and storing carbon reduces emissions but not coal usage. Replanting diminishing forests helps with carbon - sequestration and ecosystem health, not coal supply longevity.

Answer:

D. Teach public energy conservation
