Solution

The correct option is D global warming
Carbon dioxide is very important for maintaining the climate which is suitable for our survival. CO2 has the property of trapping heat from the sun. So higher the level of carbon dioxide, the higher will be the heat trapped. This leads to the rise in the temperature of the earth, resulting in global warming.
Therefore, it can be said that excessive release of CO2 into the atmosphere results in global warming.
