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.

How many countries separate north korea and finland?
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

One

Explanation:

Even though Finland and North Korea are thousands of kilometers away from each other, with Finland being in Northern Europe, and North Korea in East Asia, there's only one country between them. The only country that separates these two countries is the largest in the world Russia. Finland of course borders the European, much more developed part of Russia, while North Korea borders the eastern part of Asian Russia, practically Siberia, which is much less developed. These countries are totally different from one another in every aspect, be it politically, socially, economically, geographically, climate etc.

Countries with gold mines might not be the richest possibly because of corruption, exploitation, and conflict.
