Answer:

I think it is B......

Step-by-step explanation:

the killer smog of London 1952 was caused by thousands of people burning domestic furnaces because it was so cold outside. The smog from the coal furnaces is what caused primary pollution and particulate matter in the air. Industries were also burning fuel at the time.
