Nature provides us with all the essentials for our daily needs. Due to
overpopulation and human negligence we started to over-exploit our

generations. The need to conserve the resources are:

1. To support life by supporting ecological balance.

 Nature causes caused by Human Activities
and why?
Humans impact the physical environment in many ways: Overpopulation, Pollution,
Burning fossil fuels, and Deforestation. Changes like these have Triggered climate
change, Soil erosion, Poor air quality, and Undrinkable water. These negative
impacts can affect human behavior and can prompt mass migrations or battles over
clean water. Humans are also responsible for causing changes in the environment
that hurt Animals and Plant species. We take up more space on Earth for our homes
and cities. We pollute habitats. We illegally hunt and kill animals. We bring exotic
species into habitats. All of these activities take resources and habitats away from
plants and animals.
