Ответы
Ответ:
1 A catastrophe is an event with unfortunate, tragic consequences.
2natural disasters provoked by nature, such as an earthquake, and man-made disasters are the occurrence of an uncontrollable process at a technical facility, such as the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant.
3 Water pollution is the pollution of water bodies, usually as a result of human activity
4Water pollution provokes algae blooms in the lake or marine environment, and they actively reproduce, reducing the level of oxygen in the water.
5 Air pollution - occurs when harmful or excessive amounts of substances, including gases, particles, and biological molecules, are released into the earth's atmosphere.
6 Emissions of industrial pollutants, energy systems, and vehicles into the atmosphere have a direct impact on all living things. Nature is being destroyed, plants and animals are dying, and there is increased morbidity among the population.
7 Oil spill - the ingress of oil into the environment as a result of human actions.
8 Deforestation is the process of turning forested land into land without forest cover, such as fields, crop plantations, pastures, cities, wastelands, and others.
9 Deforestation leads to a decrease in biodiversity, timber stocks, including for industrial use, soil erosion (the growth of gullies, washout of fertile layer), reduced water availability in rivers
10The main culprit of forest fires is man - his carelessness in the use of fire in the forest during work and rest.
11 Climate change is the human-induced observed and projected long-term changes in climate averages as well as climate variability, including anomalies such as droughts, severe storms, and floods
12 agriculture leads to excessive pollution, water scarcity, and soil erosion.
13Overproduction - the excess of supply over demand, an increase in stocks of products due to the inability to sell them due to reduced demand.
14The word "abuse" itself means that it is "used for evil," i.e., that which causes harm
