Explanation:

The fate of Easter Island can be a lesson for the modern world too. Like Easter Island the Earth has only limited resources to support human society and all its demands. Like the islanders, the human population of the earth has no practical means of escape. How has the environment of the world shaped human history and how have people shaped and altered the world in which they live? Have other societies fallen into the same trap as the islanders? For the last few millennia humans have succeeded in obtaining more food and extracting more resources for increasing numbers of people and increasingly complex and technologically advanced societies.

Which best describes how storm water runoff pollutes Puget Sound?
vivado [14]

Answer:

Rain washes pollutants off streets and into storm drains, which drain into Puget Sound.

Explanation:

"Puget Sound" is a Pacific Ocean inlet that is located in Washington's northwestern coast. It is said that the name "Puget Sound" was given by George Vancouver in<em> 1792,</em> in honor of a lieutenant, Peter Puget, who was very helpful in guiding him through his expedition.

Puget Sound is home to many marine species, such as salmon, Pacific rods, harbor seals, Pacific herring and the like. However, some of these, like the <em>"Olympia oysters,"</em> have been depleted because of human activities. The recession of many species in this area has been increasing over time. It is said that the inlet was contaminated with radioactive water in 1978, when a submarine accidentally released the radioactive water into Puget Sounds.

Another reason for its buildup of pollution is through the <u>"storm water's run-off." </u>When a storm comes, it hits infrastructure's roofs and other surfaces or pollutants. The debris are carried into the drains by rain and are then drained further into Puget Sound.

The toxic chemicals that are carried primarily comes from the roofing materials or human's everyday products.
