Answer: A sharp increase in population around the world

Explanation:

The expansion of human habitation and industrialization put a lot of strain on the environment by depleting forests, altering the course of rivers for irrigation and pollution.

Natural disasters are accompanied by huge economic losses in the form of loss of property and disruption to business activities.
