The answer is the option (i) increase in the average temperature of the earth and (ii) melting of Himalayan Glaciers

Explanation: We know that the earth absorbed 75% of the solar energy and radiated the rest of it back to the atmosphere. This increases the global temperature and may result in the melting of glaciers and polar ice caps due to which the low-lying areas would be flooded. There will be an increase in infectious diseases like dengue, sleeping sickness, yellow fever, etc.
