    The document summarizes the historical relationships, perceptions, and impacts of Europeans and later Australians on the local environment from 1770 to 1970. It describes how early Europeans saw the land as unoccupied and exploited resources through practices like logging, mining, and large-scale farming. This led to reductions in biodiversity and increased pollution. Later periods saw greater industrialization, population growth, and attempts to control nature for nation-building, which further altered ecosystems through drainage projects, bridges, and irrigation. Key impacts included declining native species, soil degradation, and changes to water flows and habitats.
