Anthropogenic Disturbances

Anthropogenic disturbances refer to changes in the environment caused by human activities. These can include actions like deforestation, urban development, pollution, and climate change. Such disturbances affect natural ecosystems, often leading to habitat loss, decreased biodiversity, and altered water cycles. The impacts can be widespread, influencing wildlife, plants, and even human health. Understanding and addressing these disturbances is crucial for sustainable development and environmental conservation, as they challenge the balance of nature that supports all life on Earth.
