Which consequence is a direct result of human population growth

Biology
1 answer:
Vesna [10]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

One of the largest environmental effects of human population growth is the problem of Global warming.

Economic development, urbanization, energy consumption, transportation/motorization due to rapid population growth are major driving forces of air pollution in large cities.

In order to support the growing population, forests are being destroyed at an alarming rate. Deforestation occurs when humans clear forests to use the land either for agriculture or for habitation. This leads to soil erosion and the extinction of plant species. Land animals also decline in numbers and even face extinction due to human expansion that encroaches on their natural habitat and limits their ability to spread geographically.

Humans also continue to put a great demand on the natural resources of our planet. Many non-renewable resources are being depleted due to the unrestrained use of fuel and energy. Many parts of the world also suffer from a shortage of food and water.

The growth of the population puts larger demands on our already limited resources. The environment on earth is suffering from the growth of the global population. The depletion of resources and biodiversity, the production of waste, and the destroying of natural habitat are serious problems.
