उत्तर

The major disadvantage of fossil fuels is Air Pollution.

Explanation:

The major disadvantage of fossil fuels (like coal, oil, and natural gas) is that they cause air pollution when burned. They release harmful gases such as:

  • Carbon dioxide (CO₂) – a greenhouse gas

  • Sulphur dioxide (SO₂) – causes acid rain

  • Nitrogen oxides (NOₓ) – contribute to smog and respiratory problems

These emissions lead to global warming, respiratory diseases, and climate change.
