The right option is; D: Coal mining can pollute water supplies and kill fish and aquatic plants.

A non-renewable energy source is an energy source that is at a limited supply, can be depleted with use and cannot be replenished. Most sources of non-renewable energy are fossil fuels which include coal, petroleum, and natural gas. Coal mining and processing contaminates water bodies such as ground water, seas, and rivers by the release of pollutants such as heavy metals and other toxins which pollutes water supplies resulting in negative health and environmental effects including killing of aquatic organisms.
