Direction: Analyze the picture and discuss the difference between the two images presented, and relate how humans transformed their environment. Write your answers on a clean sheet of paper.
As I analyze the picture above it gives me the idea about the
relationships between human activity and the environment. Our environment refers to our immediate surroundings as well as the features of the neighborhood where we reside. The wider natural world, including the land, the sea, and the atmosphere, is also included. Since the very beginning of human history, individuals have interacted with their environment. Over instance, for ages, humans have cleared forests in order to cultivate crops, altering the ecosystem in the process. On the other hand, there are a variety of ways in which the environment impacts humans. A straightforward illustration is how we alter our attire in response to cold or hot weather. We will discuss some of the ways that people affect their environment in this part as well as the ways that our surroundings affect us, both favorably and unfavorably. Physical environment elements that support life and well-being include a favorable climate, easy access to clean water, fertile soil, etc. It is more challenging for people to exist, nevertheless, in hostile areas with scarce water, a scorching heat, and barren terrain. We are also impacted by significant natural occurrences like earthquakes, floods, and drought that cause harm to homes, property, and agriculture. These have the potential to cause injury, fatality, and the ruin of livelihoods, as well as to force the eviction of people. Additionally, they can harm water supplies and pipes, contaminating the water and escalating the spread of diseases transmitted by water. Natural resources come in a variety of forms that we use every day. For our survival, humans need food, water, and energy for a variety of needs, including everything from domestic cooking to large-scale industrial operations. The manufacture of all the things we use, such as our clothing, vehicles, structures, tools, etc., requires a variety of resources. Take a straightforward instance. As you read this Module, consider the resources that were utilized to create a notebook similar to the one you might be using right now. Water and wood were required as raw ingredients for the creation of paper, along with energy. Soil, water, and a place to grow were necessities for the trees that provided the wood. Your notebook may contain materials created from several sources, such as ink, metal staples, or other parts. As the population grows and consumption per person rises with socioeconomic growth, our need for resources is great and it is expanding. As a stewardship of our environment we need to take care of it so that we can gain a healthy food from our ecosystem.
