The above data obtained from Mauna Loa show trends in atmospheric $CO_2$ concentrations. Suggest a conclusion that can be made from this graph.
I.
There is an annual fluctuation of carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere.
II.
There is a continuous increase in the average concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere over the years.
III.
Increased use of fossil fuels has caused an increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere as recorded in Mauna Loa.

Scientists have been studying the effects of global warming for some time now, and are worried about the thawing of frozen ice and permafrost in the Arctic region. The image above was taken from a helicopter and shows the crack pattern in permafrost.

Suggest what may be of concern to scientists.
I.
There is frozen organic matter in the Arctic which contains ancient bacteria and viruses.
II.
With the thawing of ice and organic matter, more carbon dioxide will be released into the air.
III.
The melting of permafrost in the Arctic will cause the release of methane.

  Describe the emissions of methane, a cgw3xy+ cky h0).3ycgn 8xz, cpotent greenhouse gas.

I.
Methane is emitted during the extraction of natural gas, coal and oil.
II.
Methane is released into the atmosphere from cattle farms and other agricultural practices.
III.
Methane is short-lived in the atmosphere and is converted to carbon dioxide and water.
