Explanation:

Scientific evidence shows that sea - level rise has accelerated in recent years. The vast majority of scientific research indicates that human activities are a major cause of recent global warming, so A is incorrect. Weather anomalies are short - term and not conclusive evidence for or against long - term climate change, so B is incorrect. In fact, the Earth has been warming overall in recent decades, not cooling, so C is incorrect.

Answer:

D. In the last 10 years, sea level has risen twice as fast as in previous centuries.
