<u>Answer:</u>

Water and timber resources in the United States are in need of responsible management because they're on the verge of causing irrevocable hazards to the regional environment.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The forests in the United States are being cleared at a whooping rate owing to the increasing demand for timber wood.
  • This has resulted in the emergence of serious environmental hazards like rapid soil erosion, migration of the wildlife to forests elsewhere.
  • The average domestic water consumption in the United States is 400 gallons per day.
  • This way more than the average daily water consumption elsewhere in the world. Thus the water and timber resources in the United States need to be managed responsibly.
