Contribute to the rising temperature of the planet.

Burning fossil fuels releases large amounts of CO2 and other greenhouse gases, enhancing the greenhouse effect and driving global warming. (It does not increase atmospheric O2 — combustion consumes O2 — nor meaningfully increase biologically available fixed nitrogen, and it does not reduce the need for plants to photosynthesize.)
