Humans affect the water cycle in numerous ways. Some of our actions purposefully affect the water cycle and other human activities have unintentional consequences on the water cycle.We pull water out of the ground in order to use it. We change the flow of water using irrigation. We dam lakes and rivers for electricity and to create manmade lakes and ponds. The Colorado River in the US no longer reaches the ocean at times because humans have altered it so much.Climate change is causing numerous changes to the water cycle. Sea levels are rising in some areas and dropping in others, glaciers are retreating and disappearing affecting rivers, droughts are happening more frequently in some regions and floods in other areas, coastlines are changing and some islands are disappearing, the polar ice cap is melting, and so forth.

The use of pesticides, herbicides, and excess nitrogen for farming runs off into rivers and streams and pollutes groundwater. Deforestation, whether for timber or to clear land for agriculture or development, increases runoff. Certain emissions from industry cause acid rain .

EXTRA POINTS!! Explain the role played by consumers, business, and the government in a market economy. Hint: focus on the factor
grin007 [14]

Answer:

In a market society, also known as "capitalism," the roles are very clear. Consumers have the role of effecting the consumption of products or services, thus acting as a thermometer for the market since it is from the tastes and options of the population that the market must be guided. The market, then, is the one that meets the demand and produces in order to raise customers and realize sales. The government is a manager, but should not interfere much with the functioning of the market. The government must manage and prevent unfair competition, harness currency strength and international competition.
