Resources Mega Diagram (Energy (Important (Transport, Food production,…

- - - - more population = more people needing to be washed and hydrated etc....
    - - As people become richer more household appliances such as dishwashers and washing machines are used more
    - - Out of season food is in demand therefore there is a high consumption of water in agriculture
  - - - Toxic waste can poison wildlife
        
        great fucking revision there
      - drinking water can be poisoned
      - increased water temps can result in wild life deaths
      - micro bacteria in water can kill
      - REASONS
        
        Pesticides from agriculture get into rivers
        
        chemical waste from factories
        
        runoff from roads
        
        sewage may be pumped into river / sea
    - - There are strict laws limiting what farmers and factories can dump into rivers
      - Water treatment systems remove suspended to be used for human consuption
      - pollution traps trap pollutants from roads
      - Green roofs naturally filter out pollutants from rainwater
- - - - the more developed a country is the higher the energy consumption. Higher standard of living naturally increases energy consumption
    - - Larger population more energy consumption - pretty self explanatory
    - - more modern technology that uses electricity that is available to the population the more energy that is going to be invariably used to power these technologies. There is a market for modern technologies that are very energy efficient and is diversifying and spreading into many other industries which over time will limit the effect of this factor
  - - - Geology: this determines whether a country contains a fossil fuel deposit or not. Then many factors determine whether these deposits can be exploited or not such as extraction and economic viability
      - Climate: this can determine whether a country can use renewable energy to a certain extent
        
        Rainfall
        
        Sunshine
        
        Wind
    - - Costs
      - Technology: More advanced technology making the process cheaper and more efficient will result in new sources of energy being found and new ways to exploit resources otherwise unavailable
      - Political factors: politically stable countries have a have a better supply of energy resources
  - - - Clearing forests for bio fuel impacts environment greatly (see natural world topic)
      - Drilling for oil and gas can effect the local wildlife
      - Building wind and solar farms can effect the scenery
    - - Food Production
        
        Modern food production techniques rely heavily on energy and if there is energy insecurity then food insecurity may begin to be a problem potentially establishing an entire population
      - Industrial Output
        
        Again many industrial processes use huge amounts of electricity leading to
