How has the human population caused the overall supply of natural resources to shrink?

Human consumption and unsustainable practices have resulted in the exhaustion of Natural Resources. Deforestation and overfishing, as well as the over-exploitation of minerals, have damaged ecosystems and decreased biodiversity. Industrialization and the combustion of fossil fuels have contributed to climate change, which has further strained resources. As the world's population continues to expand, the need for resources increases, putting even more strain on the Earth's limited resources. Sustainable processes and conservation measures are essential to reduce these impacts and balance natural resource use.
