Solution

The correct option is A Average temperature of earth increases

Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of the Earth's surface.
It is not a localised event so poles are not the only place to be warm.
Ocean evaporation goes through the water cycle and they do not lose volume.
Tectonic movements are not related to heat.
