Which of the following best describes a benefit of one type of nonrenewable energy? a. natural gas does not produce greenhouse gases when it is burned. b. coal deposits are found on nearly every continent and mining coal poses few risks. c. petroleum is not carbon based and will not produce carbon dioxide as a byproduct. d. nuclear power does not produce air pollution as other energy sources do.

" Natural gas does not produce greenhouse gases as other energy sources do."

Explanation:

The answer, "Coal deposits are found on nearly every continent and mining coal poses few risks." shows only how it can be a better option, but does not show how it can benefit.

The answer, "Petroleum is relatively inexpensive compared to other forms of energy." only shows how it can be a better option, but does not show how it can benefit.

The answer, "Nuclear power increases water vapor in the atmosphere." does not clearly state how this benefits us.
