One impact of obtaining nonrenewable resources is the depletion of finite reserves, leading to scarcity and rising costs. This has been exacerbated by an increasing population placing higher demands on these resources, creating competition and potential conflicts over access. Another impact is the environmental damage caused by the extraction and use of these resources, such as pollution and habitat destruction. As the population grows, the demand for nonrenewable resources also escalates, putting more strain on ecosystems and exacerbating these negative impacts.
