The correct options are
A Melting of polar ice caps
B Increase in energy consumption
C Rise of sea level
D Increase in average temperature of earth's atmosphere
The gradual rise in overall earth's temperature is called global warming. The effects of global warming are:

Melting of polar ice caps which causes increase in sea level.

Increase in energy consumption - Energy required for cooling (for human purposes).

Rise of sea level - The low coastal areas have submerged due to rise in sea level.

Rise in temperature of oceans - Causes inconvenience and eventual death of aquatic animals.

Decrease in amount of oxygen in sea and river water - Causes inconvenience and eventual death of aquatic animals.
