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?

The answer is "more carbon in the atmosphere likely absorbs more heat energy, thus increasing the temperature."

If this is a question with answer choices, then I'm pretty sure it's A.
