Which of the following is a correct example of global warming creating a negative feedback?
A)Ice has a higher albedo than water so replacing ice with water causes the surface to warm.
B)Ice has a lower albedo than water so replacing ice with water causes the surface to warm.
C)Less water evaporating will create more low level clouds,causing the surface to warm.
D)More water evaporating will create more low level clouds,causing the surface to cool.

This is an example of a negative feedback because an increase in temperature caused by global warming (more water evaporating) leads to more low level clouds which have a cooling effect on the surface. This creates a balancing effect that mitigates the initial warming.
