Question

How can industrialisation affect food, water and energy supplies?

Answer 1

Both food production and distribution are dependant on fossil fuel use. Commercial fertilisers and pesticides are by-products of the oil industry.

The human population has increased exponentially in the last century, mainly due to scientific agriculture, mechanised production and distribution of food, fertilisers and pesticides.

Without these, food production would fall to about one quarter its prevent level, causing mass starvation

Answer 3

You can grow more food, so you can feed more people, and reduce the cost. You can drill for water (instead of relying only on rivers lakes and run off) you can pump more water, you can create a viable water recycling program (ie. water treatment plant) that will eliminate water born bacteria and diseases. You can treat sewage before it's transported or pumped away.  Industrialisation = technology = development.  So energy supplies, and efficiency can be increased.
