Question

which of the following best explains how greenhouse gases are responsible for drought?
greenhouse gases increase the global temperature, and this leads to drought
greenhouse gases absorb all surface water, and this leads to drought.
greenhouse gases destroy the trees, and this leads to drought.
greenhouse gases make the soil infertile, and this leads to drought.

Explanation:

Greenhouse gases trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, causing global warming. Higher temperatures can lead to changes in precipitation patterns and increased evaporation, contributing to drought. The other options are incorrect as greenhouse gases do not absorb all surface - water, destroy trees directly in a way that causes drought, or make soil infertile in a direct drought - causing manner.

Answer:

Greenhouse gases increase the global temperature, and this leads to drought
