CORRECT ANSWER FROM SIMON:
B
- After "as a result" you can read a list of things that are affecting estuaries. Every factor in the list is related to human activity.
- There is nothing about the effect that estuaries have on the environment, and there is nothing about estuaries disappearing completely.
