Anthropogenic impacts

Anthropogenic impacts refer to changes in the environment caused by human activities. This includes pollution from factories, deforestation for agriculture, and carbon emissions from vehicles, which contribute to climate change. Urbanization alters natural landscapes and affects local ecosystems. Additionally, overfishing and habitat destruction threaten biodiversity. These impacts can lead to negative consequences for both the planet and human health, such as extreme weather, loss of species, and poor air quality. Understanding these effects is crucial for developing sustainable practices to mitigate harm to the environment and preserve resources for future generations.
