D Correct answer
Explanation

Soil nature (texture, composition) does not directly affect air temperature. Pollution can affect temperature through the greenhouse effect and urban heat islands. Trees affect temperature through shade and evapotranspiration. Population density creates urban heat islands. Soil is not a climatic factor.
