Overexploitation of natural resources occurs when the extraction and use of physical and biotic resources exceed their natural regeneration capacity, leading to depletion and environmental degradation. Physical resources such as water, soil, minerals, and forests are often overused for agricultural, industrial, and urban demands. For example, excessive groundwater withdrawal for irrigation reduces water tables, while deforestation for timber, fuel, and agriculture diminishes forest cover, disrupts soil stability, and reduces biodiversity. Over-mining of minerals leads to habitat destruction, soil erosion, and pollution, compromising the long-term availability
