Concept:Global warming is the gradual rise in Earth’s average temperature, caused mainly by the greenhouse effect.
Explanation:Global warming results from increased levels of
CO2, CFCs, and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
This rise in temperature melts polar ice caps and glaciers.
The melted ice increases the volume of water in the oceans, leading to a rise in sea level.
Higher sea levels cause more frequent and severe flooding.
Thus, flooding is a direct consequence of global warming.
Air pollution and water pollution are more likely causes or contributors, while increased humidity is not a major recognised consequence.
Answer:B. Flooding
