3. Deforestation  

4. Unsustainable water management  

5. Increase in population and excess use of natural resources  

6. Urbanization and development of tourism  

7. Famine, poverty and political instability  

8. Climate change

<u>Explanation</u>:

Desertification means lands used for farming are becoming useless for farming and becoming like desert lands.

This may also occur due to the removing of trees in forests that lead to a decrease in rainfall.
