How will the burnt oil contribute to flooding?

Burning oil releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, contributing to the warming of our planet. In 2013, petroleum accounted for 41 percent of the U.S.’s carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels.

In order to avoid the worst impacts of climate change, scientists say the world cannot afford to burn more than one-third of known oil reserves.
