Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) We exploit natural resources to our fullest extent. For example, we perform deforestation to get raw products for manufacturing stuff. Deforestation can lead to wide array of problems like soil erosion, landslides, and even extinction of animal species.

2) We pollute, like a LOT! Look up plastic islands in ocean or microplastics found in fish or even some mammals. We dump stuff into ocean which can not only pollute the water but also kill marine life.

3) We burn fossil fuels which releases gases that trap heat in earth's atmosphere and result in global warming.

4) the list goes on and on and on and on......
