The burning of these resources produces gas, like nitrogen, carbon monoxide, and sulfur dioxide which can cause major problems for the environment. Scientists believe that these gases, once released in the air, can trap heat from the sun forming a barrier. Over time this wall of gas and hot air will erode away the many layers of the atmosphere, allowing more radiation from the sun to enter the Earth. A collection of these gases creates a “smog” and can lead to acid rain, in highly populated cities. These emissions, in concentration, are unhealthy for life, plants, and the
