What are some of the results of the depletion of our natural assets?

1 answer:

3 0

The depletion of the natural assets by the humans has resulted only in negative effects. As natural assets we can take the water, forests, grasslands, oil etc. With the depletion of these natural assets, the humans have managed to cause incredibly high damage to the natural cycles, to the environment, to the species. The water for example is crucial for the survival of any organism, but the humans don't seem to take that in consideration, so the water is overused, and lot of species end up dead. Also, the extraction of groundwater causes the land to be unstable, as big gap opens up below the surface, so the surface layers often crumble. The extraction of oil uses methods that directly kill off and badly injure any living organism nearby. The forests and grasslands have been converted to agricultural landscapes, so lot of species went extinct or are endangered because they have lost their habitats.

1)Culture defines people's values, beliefs, and personal interests. It allows myself and others to maintain an identity in society, which I believe is important. We are the people we are today because of our upbringings. Culture plays a huge role in shaping our identity.

2)These features include vegetation, climate, the local water cycle, and land formations. Geography doesn't just determine whether humans can live in a certain area or not, it also determines people's lifestyles, as they adapt to the available food and climate patterns.

3)Geography doesn't just determine whether humans can live in a certain area or not, it also determines people's lifestyles, as they adapt to the available food and climate patterns. As humans have migrated across the planet, they have had to adapt to all the changing conditions they were exposed to.
