Mathew claims that people should invest in alternative sources of energy rather than burning fossil fuels. He has put together two graphs as evidence. The first compares how human use of fossil fuels affects atmospheric carbon dioxide levels, and the second shows how land-ocean temperatures on Earth have changed over time. Which statement correctly supports his claim based on evidence from the graphs? a graph showing the increasing trend of carbon emissions from 1800 to 2004, a graph showing the increasing trend of annual mean temperature from 1880 to 2015

A.
More carbon in the atmosphere likely absorbs more heat energy, thus increasing the temperature.
B.
Petroleum should replace natural gas, since it releases less carbon dioxide.
C.
Burning coal does not contribute to a rise in carbon dioxide or temperature.
D.
Carbon dioxide emissions from burning fossil fuels has decreased over time.
E.
The graphs show no possible correlation between burning fossil fuels and increasing temperatures.
