Answer:

1. Mining.

Mining affects the land by creating loss of biodiversity, sinkholes, mudslides and contamination. That’s just a few affects mining can have on the land.

2. Petroleum.

The main risk that happens when extracting petroleum are oil spills. Some of the worst oil spills in history have caused major fires, explosions, and contamination in the area where they are at. What’s worse is that innocent little animals get caught in those oil spills and die.

Hope this helps and pls mark me brainliest if it did :)

Komok [63]
