• Non-equitable distribution of Resources

• All of these

Answer 1

The main causes for depletion of resources are over use/irrational use, population growth and non-equitable distribution of resources.

Explanation:

Over use refers to exploiting non-renewable resources too quickly to meet increasing demands, often leading to shortages. Population growth intensifies the demand for land, water, and energy, causing strain on resources. Unequal distribution means some regions face more depletion due to concentrated resource use or scarcity. Together, these factors accelerate resource depletion, disrupting ecosystems and economic growth.
