Factors Affecting Levels Of Development - Environmental Flashcards
Why does limited water supply affect development?
Harder to produce food
Won’t grow as much
Less crops produced = malnutrition = poorer quality of life
Fewer crops to sell = less money = poorer quality of life
Gov gets less money from taxes as less is sold and brought which means that there is less to spend on developing the country
Why does lots of natural hazards affect development?
Building destroyed
Have to spend money on rebuilding
Reduces amount of money gov has to spend on development projects
Why does fewer raw materials affect development?
Make less money because they’ve got fewer products to sell
Less money to spend on development
Why does a poor climate/poor farming land affect levels of development?
Won’t be able to grow much
Reduces amount of food produced which can lead to malnutrition = lower quality of life
Fewer crops to sell = less moment = reduces quality of life
Gov gets less money from taxes as less is sold and brought so there is less or spend on developing the country
