The human population is increasing rapidly.
Which statement best explains why this is likely to reduce biodiversity?
More people breathe out more carbon dioxide, which is the main cause of global warming
More resources are used and more waste is produced, so more habitats are lost or polluted
More people eat more food, so species only become extinct because they are over-hunted
More people need more water, so rainfall decreases and species must move to new habitats
