Human Impact

Introduction to Human Impact

Human impact on the environment carries many negative longterm consequences.
Consumption, altering habitats, and carbon emissions are all human activities destroying the natural world.



Habitat Alteration

Habitat alteration is changing earth's natural compositing by destroying habitats to build upon or fragmenting habitats for roads and access. This is the biggest threat to biodiversity.



Pollution

Pollution is the contamination of Earth's atmosphere and surface (land and bodies of water).
Disposal of human waste results in land pollution, while burning fossil fuels results in air pollution. Land and air pollution affect water contamination.



Deforestation

Deforestation is the removal and destruction of forests.
Clear cutting completely removes all trees in an area for human consumption, such as building materials, paper products, etc.



Human Population Growth

The human population has continued to increase, which means human impact on the environment will increase as well.
Concerns include lack of space, food, and other resources, as well as disease outbreaks.



Acid Rain

Acid rain is caused by burning fossil fuels, which releases acidic gases into the atmosphere. The gases latch on to water molecules and the result is acid (low pH) rain.
Acid rain results in organism death and destruction of infrastructure.

Earth is a closed system. that means the amount of rocks, metals, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and water on earth ___. so it is ess
leonid [27]

<u>Answer:</u>

  • The Earth is a "closed system" which means that the amount of rocks,  carbon, metals, nitrogen, water and oxygen on earth remains constant.
  • So it is essential that "biogeochemical cycles renew these materials" as they move through the Earth's subsystems.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • The Earth's only source of extra-planetary energy is the Solar radiations received by Earth.
  • The biogeochemical cycles on the planet are responsible for processing the same old rocks, metals, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, water, and other abiotic substances on Earth in order to naturally renew them and make them available for reuse.
  • No naturally occurring element on Earth is newly produced. It is only renewed through biogeochemical processes.

¿Qué ocurrió con la cantidad de vías de ferrocarril durante la etapa agroexportadora? (¿AUMENTO O SE REDUJO?)
astraxan [27]

Answer:

Durante la etapa agroexportadora la cantidad de vías de ferrocarril aumentó.

Explanation:

Durante la etapa agroexportadora hubo un considerable aumento en el número de vías de ferrocarril que permitió que los diferentes productos provenientes del campo llegarán al puerto para ser exportados. El tren disminuyó los costos y el tiempo de traslado de las mercaderías favoreciendo así a la economía ya que se abarataron los costos, más productores pudieron exportar su materia prima y más productos pudieron ingresar a diferentes partes del país de forma más eficaz beneficiando al crecimiento económico y social.

GenaCL600 [577]

The exposed portion of the continental crust underlying North America refers to Canadian Shield. The continental crust is known as the North American Craton which consists of rocks from the Archean dn Proterozoic eons and extends from Mexico to Greenland. Canadian Shield also produces great resources that helped most humans for their economic development. Because of the resources present in the Shield, it has a great disadvantage to settlers. The primary obstacle to population growth in the area is the presence of the bare rock, thin soils, muskeg and insects.
