The trend for human population and the rate of climate change are both predicted to consistently increase significantly. What outcome is likely to be the least critical for humans in the future?

A) deforestation

B) less available freshwater

C) displaced coastal communities

D) increased competition over land use

All these factors will be affected by the increase of the human population and the climate change.

Explanation:

It is difficult to determine what of these factors will be less affected because all of them are critical and they are directly associated with the increase in the human population and the climate change:

A) deforestation: the increase in the human population will affect natural environments for their agricultural use

B) less available freshwater: likewise deforestation, an increase in the human population will affect the availability of water for consumption

C) displaced coastal communities: climate change will increase the sea levels, thereby leading to the displacement of coastal communities

D) increased competition over land use: an increase in the human population will produce higher competition for the available resources
