Select the correct answer. How can the pressures on water sources caused by land use be described? Not enough water treatment facilities available, especially in informal settlements Can cause a change in acidity and metal content of water


All of the options provided describe different ways in which land use can put pressure on water sources. However, if you are looking to choose one that sums up or exemplifies the overall impact of land use on water sources, each option highlights a distinct consequence. If I were to select the most comprehensive answer, I would choose: **Increase in the laying of impervious surfaces (such as concrete) diminishes rainwater recharge to groundwater.** This option captures a fundamental issue caused by land use changes, which is the alteration of natural water cycles and the reduction of groundwater replenishment due to urbanization and construction.
