Earth's population continues to grow daily. Which of the following statements best illustrates a possible consequence of such rapid growth?
More oxygen will be available in the atmosphere.
Competition for natural resources will increase.
More land will be available for human habitation.
People will begin using fossil fuels less.

Respuesta :

The answer is competition for natural resources will increase. More people means people will fight for limited natural resources. It’s the only one that seems logical. Oxygen will not increase since humans do not produce it, we cut down the trees and plants that do to build our houses. More land will not be available it will decrease as more people inhabit the planet and take up more space. People will use more fossil fuels because more people = companies take advantage to sell their product. They don’t care about the environment so if the demand goes up then they will supply more. Even though there’s a limited amount, therefore meaning that the overall amount will decrease.

Answer:

Competition for natural resources will increase.

I hope this helps
