We of human related activities on the environment.

We live in a world where the population of
humans or homo sapiens has reached 7 billion. With the increasing number of
humans on planet Earth, various environmental issues has hit a point where if
necessary actions or steps are not taken, conditions may get worse in the next
couple of years. Everything that we are facing today, global warming,
pollution, climate change, acid rain and ozone depletion are the effects of
human activities that took place years and years ago. But can you imagine what
it will be like 50 years from now, if this condition worsens? The world, a
place we used to call home, will be something unthinkable, unimaginable. Will
the next generation even get the opportunity to live life like we do? Will they
be able to breathe normally? Will they be able to get a chance to look at all
the organisms that we have now? They certainly will, if and only if the
important measures are taken today to save the planet.

Knowingly or unknowingly, human activities
actually threaten the environment, the ecosystem and thus, threatens mankind.
Many problems related to the environment are actually the effects of daily human
activities such as open burning, cutting down of trees and improper disposal of
sewage. These are just the simple daily activities that are still practised by
many people today throughout the world despite knowing the danger that they are
causing the environment to deal with. The progress in the name of ‘development’
has certainly done more harm than good. The unplanned development and the
mismanagement of the ecosystems has caused us to pay a high price. Therefore,
conflicts arise between the need to fulfil the human demands in a short-term
and the need to protect and conserve our environment for the long run.

So, in this project, “Human Impact on the
Environment”, we will be discussing on the negative effects of human related
activities on the environment. We will be focusing on 6 major problems, namely,
eutrophication, deforestation, global warming, ozone depletion, pollution and
acid deposition. Of course, there are many other problems caused by us, humans,
which have increasingly threaten the economic resources, health and survival of
ecosystems. However, in this assignment, only the 6 stated problems above will
be discussed.
