Explanation:

First, we analyze the meaning of the sentence "Es el aumento de la temperatura media de la atmósfera y de los océanos" which translates to "It is the increase in the average temperature of the atmosphere and the oceans". Now we analyze each option:

• Option A: "la lucha contra la contaminación" means "the fight against pollution", which is not about temperature increase.
• Option B: "el medio ambiente" means "the environment", a general term, not specifically about temperature increase.
• Option C: "el recalentamiento global" means "global warming", which is the increase in the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere and oceans.
• Option D: "la sostenibilidad" means "sustainability", which is about maintaining resources, not temperature increase.
