Read the following passage, then choose the best answer.
Recent research reveals that the degradation of agricultural soils, forests, woodlands, coastal
fisheries, and wildlife resources is more and more serious. The majority of the estimated costs of
environmental degradation comes from forests and natural resources are being depleted at an alarming rate.
More than 50% of the original forest has been converted to agricultural land by slash – and – burn.
Despite land expansion, productivity has declined because of soil erosion. Fish, timber, and non – timber
forest product stocks are decreasing. As a result, coastal towns have begun to experience severe water
shortages. Hydropower is dropping. Wildlife populations and biodiversity are in serious decline and many
species face extinction. Poor forest management and soil degradation result in huge economic losses. The
degradation of water increases the costs and reduces the quality of both water and power. The prospects for
economic development and poverty reduction are dependent on natural resources. Rural households rely on
natural resources for their livelihoods. ( fisheries, and wildlife provide protein in diets.) Urban economic
activities depend on reliable hydroelectric power. However, peole do not have much awareness of
protecting the environment on which their life depends.
