Agriculture contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, habitat destruction, and water overuse in drier climates. For the growing population to receive enough nutrition in a sustainable way, changes must be made. Food loss and waste must be reduced, and not just in underdeveloped countries. A shift to a healthier diet worldwide is believed to help decrease the impact on land use and greenhouse gas emissions. Another change is improving land and water management, which can help increase crop yields, producing more food in the same amount of space. According to the reading, how can people decrease the consumption of natural resources? Choose all correct answers. decrease greenhouse gas emissions increase habitat destruction reduce waste increase land and water management oversight
