Show answerAnswer & explanation
Correct option: C — 2, 1, 3, 4
2, 1, 3, 4 Sentence 2 will be the starting line as it introduces the main idea of the parajumble, i.e. the excessive use of fossil fuels has led to environmental degradation and global warming. And, sentence 1 states that due to the negative impact of fossil fuels, the demand for renewable energy sources has increased. So, sentence 1 will follow sentence 2.

So, sentence 4 will follow sentence 3. Going through the options, option (c) has the correct sequence.
