Answer: C. The increase in the use of coal as a source of heat and energy.

Charles Dickens was one of the most important writers of Victorian England, and his novels often depict the negative consequences of the Industrial Revolution. One such consequence was the increased presence of industrial pollution. In this excerpt, Dickens describes how fog could be seen everywhere in the "dirty city." This fog was due to the air pollution caused by coal, as this became the favourite source of heat and energy during this time period.

What were the main objectives of Radicals in 19th century​
pochemuha

Answer:

The Radical movement arose in the late 18th century to support parliamentary reform, with additional aims including lower taxes and the abolition of sinecures.[1] John Wilkes's reformist efforts in the 1760s as editor of The North Briton and MP were seen as radical at the time, but support dropped away after the Massacre of St George's Fields in 1768. Working class and middle class "Popular Radicals" agitated to demand the right to vote and assert other rights including freedom of the press and relief from economic distress, while "Philosophic Radicals" strongly supported parliamentary reform, but were generally hostile to the arguments and tactics of the Popular Radicals. However, the term “Radical” itself, as opposed to “reformer” or “Radical Reformer”, only emerged in 1819 during the upsurge of protest following the successful conclusion of the Napoleonic War.[2] Henry "Orator" Hunt was the main speaker at the Manchester meeting in 1819 that ended in the Peterloo Massacre; Hunt was elected MP for the Preston division in 1830-32.
