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.
