Actually efficiency of Carnot cycle depends upon the temperature of the sink so if temperature of the sink decrease efficiency increase or efficiency increase by increase temperature of source.

A more effective way to increase the efficiency of the Carnot engine is decreasing lower temperature. But you can also say that by increasing higher temperature you may obtain increasing in efficiency too.
