    Humans affect the world through resource consumption in three main ways: 1. Food production increases global demand for resources like land, energy, and water, but also allows greater food availability and innovation. However, it causes environmental issues like eutrophication and greenhouse gas emissions. 2. Dense urban settlement is advantageous for jobs and development, but causes urban heat islands, air pollution, and waste disposal problems. 3. Transportation enables global trade and connectivity, but heavily relies on fossil fuels and infrastructure, resulting in pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. Each activity positively contributes to society, but also has negative environmental consequences that must be addressed.
