Question

. Describe how the following cause the depletion of groundwater c) Increase in construction d) Increase in agriculture​

Answer 1

Answer:

c) Increasing population creates demand for construction of houses, shops, offices, roads and pavements. ... So, the increasing population ends up consuming more groundwater as well as allowing lesser water to seep into the ground. This results in depletion of water table.

d) Much of increased food trade is in items such as rice, wheat, maize and sugarcane, all of which rely on irrigation. Higher production has led to greater demand on groundwater, since the amount of water required is much greater than the global supply of water from rivers and lakes.
