Answer:

A.) Overdrawing water from a aquifer

Step-by-step explanation:

Thomas Jefferson clearly understood the idea of intergenerational tyranny. In 1789, he wrote a letter to James Madison, which I paraphrase here: The earth belongs to the living. No man may by natural right oblige the lands he owns or occupies to debts greater than those that may be paid during his own lifetime.

It's A. cause the rest aren't as harmful and mostly natural.
