Re: Question on Modifiers [#permalink]
Hi. I wanted to open the forum once again because I had a doubt in the question:
citizens of many countries are expressing concern about the environment damage caused by the wide spread release of greenhouse gases may be impossible to reverse

It says to replace about with that.

However, I wanted to know if we can substitute about with any other subordinate marker such as because or since

But this would mean we are connecting two clauses with something other than FANBOYS conjunction without a comma. Is it correct, i.e.

citizens of many countries are expressing concern since/because the environment damage caused by the wide spread release of greenhouse gases may be impossible to reverse
