DSea level has risen more than 300 centimeters. This is true because as the earth gets warmer, ice will melt and turn into water which goes into the ocean making it rise.

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Global climate change can be defined as rise in temperature more than normal. This is the reason why many consequences of global warming can be seen.

The part of earth having maximum amount of ice is getting more heat and as a result of this ice is melting which increases the sea level more than 300 centimeters since 1880.

Thus, the correct answer is option D
