Answer:
Human actions have a significant impact on the Earth. Littering, air and water pollution, and which of the following is an example of a human effect on the biosphere
Explanation:
littering, air and water pollution
- Litter can pollute the air in addition to polluting the water and soil. According to researchers, more than 40% of the world's litter is burned in the open air, releasing harmful pollutants.
- These emissions can cause respiratory problems, as well as other health issues, and can even serve as a precursor to acid rain.
- Water pollution occurs when industrial and agricultural effluents contaminate water bodies such as rivers, lakes, oceans, groundwater, and aquifers.
- When water becomes contaminated, it has a negative impact on all lifeforms that rely on it, whether directly or indirectly.
- Air pollution is a key environmental risk factor for diseases like asthma, lung cancer, ventricular hypertrophy, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, psychological difficulties, autism, retinopathy, fetal development, and low birth weight, among others.
