Question

In 3 to 5 sentences describe two impacts of obtaining nonrenewable resources, and how bees have been affected by increasing population

Answer 1

Obtaining nonrenewable resources, such as fossil fuels and minerals, can lead to significant environmental degradation, including habitat destruction and increased greenhouse gas emissions, which contribute to climate change. This environmental disruption can harm local ecosystems and biodiversity, affecting species that rely on those habitats. As human populations grow, the demand for agricultural expansion leads to increased pesticide use, habitat loss, and fragmentation, which can adversely affect bee populations by reducing their foraging habitats and exposing them to harmful chemicals. Consequently, declining bee populations threaten pollination services essential for many crops and wild plants, further exacerbating food security issues.
