Answer:

C: the turbines are too large

Explanation:

Wind energy is a very clean source of energy and it is very economical compared to burning of coal for producing electricity. Wind energy does not cause pollution compared to burning of coal that release harmful gases like CO(carbon(i)oxide) . wind energy are converted directly to electricity by the generator  for immediate usage.

Wind energy is renewable and sustainable and a very clean source of energy compare to burning of coal.

The only disadvantage over burning of coal is that the turbines are too large.

Personally I would say it's A (apart from the installation costs which may make it a little expensive) but it does involve certain aspects of D also as wind energy doesn't cause pollution. So either A or D! 

Hope I was of help! :)

Sea level can rise in response to ______.
cupoosta [38]

sea level can rise in response to thermal expansion,  atmospheric pressure changes,  changes in sea ice extent.

<h3>What happens if sea levels rise?</h3>

The main physical effects of sea level rise are beach erosion, inundation of deltas, flooding, and the loss of numerous marshes and wetlands. As a result of saltwater intrusion, increased salinity will probably become a concern in coastal aquifers and estuary systems.

<h3>How is sea level rise measured?</h3>

Tide stations and satellite laser altimeters are the main tools used to measure sea level. The height of the sea as measured along the shore in relation to a particular place on land is what tide stations all around the world tell us about what is happening locally.

<h3>How will sea level rise affect us in the future?</h3>

And as the oceans get larger due to a rising climate, more people may be at risk of coastal flooding by 2100, putting up to 410 million people at risk. The increase of coastal towns as a result of building and development also puts more people at risk.
