Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The green house effect is a phenomenon resulting from the release of air pollutant gases including carbon dioxide.

photosynthesis works by absorbing carbon dioxide gas and water as raw materials for energy & glucose production.

therefore one can conclude that by removing one of the green house gases (pollutants) we can counteract (go against) it.
