Explicación:
Causes:
1. Food Waste: Common causes of food waste in restaurants include overbuying, overproduction, and spoilage. Overbuying is often a result of inadequate forecasting of consumer demand and the large quantities of food that restaurants typically need to purchase at one time. Certain preparation techniques (such as failing to get the most fruit off the rind) can also produce unnecessary waste. Additionally, when food is stored inadequately or is not utilized in a timely manner, spoilage can render it unfit for consumption
2. Biodiversity Loss: The earth’s biodiversity is in grave danger. In the present era, human beings are the most dangerous cause of the destruction of the earth’s biodiversity. Some causes are: habitat destruction, invasive species and over-exploitation of species
3. Plastic pollution: it is overused
4. Deforestation: Deforestation causes can either be direct or indirect.
Among direct causes are:
Natural causes as hurricanes, fires, parasites and floods
Human activities as agricultural expansion, cattle breeding, timber extraction, mining, oil extraction, dam construction and infrastructure development.
Among indirect causes are:
Insufficient political actions and governance failure as inadequate land tenure system, corruption, wrong public administration investments
Political and socio-economic causes as population growth, military conflicts and climatic changes
5. Melting Ice Caps: The burning of fossil fuels has resulted in the buildup of greenhouse gases in the environment thus influencing the warming trend because they trap heat in the atmosphere. The increase in temperatures is causing more and more glaciers to melt, consequently, this ends up exposing the earth underneath
