The Bad Effect That Human Cause to the Nature
Introduction According to Haider Rizvi (2007), “We are living beyond the means and capacities of our planet.” The Earth is being damaged badly daily. Humans are destroying their unique shelter. A rapid increase in the human population and an increase in the standard of living have resulted in widespread damage of the environment. People are destroying habitats and reducing the amount of land available for other organisms by building, quarrying, farming and dumping waste. The more society develops, the more modern technology develops, the more innocent animals will suffer. Therefore, people have to change their ways immediately or they are all going to die. To make it work, they should be aware of the environmental damage and take action to prevent further consequences in nature. Some of those serious problems, for example, natural disasters through deforestation, all the species of plants and animals disappear, and humans will eventually vanish. The human exploitation of natural resources also brings about the damages in nature, such as global warming and greenhouse effect. Then, they lead to animal extinction, plant loss, and the disappearance of the habitat of many species. As a result, the rapid exhaustion of the Earth’s natural resources becomes the most important issue nowadays that will cause many consequences in nature. In a word, some of those bad effects that human activities cause to nature are change in climate, species extinction, and marine ecosystem damage.
Body Climate change Human activities are considered to be contributing to an increase in average global temperature (Shah, 2012). First, human activities in general release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. This seems not to be a problem because people think that plants will absorb carbon dioxide and produce oxygen to clean the atmosphere as “a carbon cycle”. However, the problem here is that people are exhausting far beyond the capacity of the environment.
