Answer:

energy crisis

Step-by-step explanation:

The carrying capacity indicate the maximum population of a particular species that a given area of habitat can support over a given period without destroying or depleting the resource base. Energy crisis decrease the human carrying capacity because a decline in oil and gas production which are types of energy resources would mean a decline in energy inputs into the ecosystem, a decline in productivity and thus a decline in population.Without these resources agricultural productivity decreases and less people can be fed.
