<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.

Mariana [72]

Answer: (1)The source areas of acid rain pollutants and affected areas are often far apart.

Explanation:

Acid rain happens as a result of pollutants being emitted and then reacting with water in the clouds before it falls to the earth.

The place these pollutants come from is usually far away from the place the acid rain falls because the polluted clouds would move from their place of origin to other areas and will only fall when the cloud becomes too heavy for the atmosphere to keep carrying.
