Though predictions vary, many global warming experts believe that average global temperatures will rise between three and eight degrees Fahrenheit during the next century. Such an increase would cause an alarming rise in sea levels, displacing millions of people by destroying major population centers along the world's coastlines.

Which of the following is an assumption in support of the argument's conclusion?

A. New technological developments in the next century will not divert rising seas from the world's coastal cities.

B. Individuals will not become more aware of the steps they can take to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases.

C. Rising sea levels similarly affect all coastal population centers.

D. Some global warming experts predict a greater than eight degree Fahrenheit increase in global temperatures during the next century.

E. Human activity is the sole cause of increasing global temperatures.

Answer Should be A.

Conclusion -

Such an increase would cause an alarming rise in sea levels, displacing millions of people by destroying major population centers along the world's coastlines.

Now as per option C.
C. Rising sea levels similarly affect all coastal population centers.
Even if Rising sea levels does not similarly affect at all the places even then there will be a affect on the argument. The author will simply say that I am not saying that it will make an same affect at all the place but it will definitely make an impact.

Now with option A
A. New technological developments in the next century will not divert rising seas from the world's coastal cities.
This should be assumed because if not then New technology will play its role and the major displacement of millions of people all over the world Coastal Cities could have been Stopped.

This has to be assumed.
