The Haber Process & Its Environmental Implications

The video discusses the large-scale production of ammonia-based fertilizers and their role in sustaining global food production. However, it highlights the environmental and social consequences of overusing these fertilizers, such as eutrophication, which leads to oxygen depletion in water bodies, affecting aquatic life. The social impact includes reduced fish populations, affecting communities reliant on fishing. The video also covers algal blooms, which further exacerbate these issues by blocking sunlight and consuming oxygen.
