Question
what is a likely consequence of continued human population growth?
a. abundant natural resources
b. larger rain forests
c. less pollution
d. more urban centers
As the human population grows, more people need housing, infrastructure, and services. Urban centers expand and new ones are created to accommodate this growth. Natural resources would likely be depleted (not abundant) due to higher demand. Rainforests might shrink as land is cleared for agriculture, housing, etc. Pollution would likely increase (not decrease) from more industrial activities, transportation, and waste generation associated with a larger population.
