When assessing how a project will affect the environment, the focus is on how it could change air, water, and living habitats. The most plausible and comprehensive predictions include air pollution from emissions, potential water contamination from runoff or spills, and habitat loss due to land use changes. This set of impacts covers multiple environmental media (air, water, ecosystems) and reflects common concerns in impact assessments for large projects.

Other options describe benefits or narrower effects that don’t capture the full range of likely environmental risks. Economic gain or biodiversity improvements aren’t typically framed as predicted environmental impacts, and focusing only on traffic and pollution misses the broader ecological consequences like habitat disruption and water quality.
