weathering
it is the use, by humans, of a natural
resource to an extent that it is not
sustainable anymore. it is also is recognized
as one of the causes of the degradation and depletion of our natural resources
overexploitation

faster than the population can
compensate for, the population is
listed as (?)
overexploited, or
overharvested.

numbers of a species decline to the
point where the animal or plant
could possibly go (?)
extinct
cease
to exist, the organism is classified
as (?)
