Geography
1 answer:
posledela3 years ago
6 0

In general, the human impact on the natural resources is negative.

Explanation:

The humans constantly stride to be as developed as possible and to live at a higher standard as possible. This means that the economies constantly need to progress, develop, and grow. In order for this to be achieved the humans need natural resources, mostly for energy, but also for numerous other things.

Because the demand for natural resources is constantly on the rise and it seems that it will be in the future as well, the natural resources are spent at a rate much faster that the time needed for them to replenish naturally. This leads to decrease of the natural resources and eventual putting end to some of them, in a process that benefits the humans for now, but on the long run can only be seen as destroying and over-exploration of these resources.

How many of the products or foods you use daily come from Asia’s many resources, industries, and ecosystems? Give examples of on
Alex

Answer:

<em>Many of the products I use are from Asia's resources, especially food. </em>

<em> TWO EXAMPLES: rice (comes from Thailand) and fish sauce (aka "nouc mam") that comes from Vietnam. </em>

<em>The utilization of Asia’s natural resources has depended, to a large extent, not only on the development of technology but also on political circumstances. Thus, until the end of World War II and the beginning of the process of decolonization in Asia, most Asian countries were not free to develop their own natural resources independently and without reference to the economic interest of a colonial power. Cultural attitudes also have affected the utilization of resources. In India cultural taboos prohibit the slaughter of cattle either for food or to conserve resources when the animals are no longer productive.</em>
