Effects on Air, Water, and/or Land:
Air: The growing population contributes to higher greenhouse gas emissions from increased energy consumption, transportation, and industrial activities. This exacerbates climate change.

Water: Increased demand for water for drinking, agriculture, and industrial use is leading to over-extraction of groundwater, contamination of water bodies, and shortages in some regions.

Land: More land is being converted for urban development, agriculture, and infrastructure, leading to soil degradation, erosion, and a reduction in natural ecosystems.
