Environmental health Unit 38 P1 Explain how human activity can damages the environment For years now we have been warned about human activity destroying our planet and environment. Some of the things that humans are affecting are Climate Change, Depletion of Ozone Layer, Pollution, Deforestation and Extinction of Species. Overcrowding, urbanisation and population growth Overcrowding can affect our planet more than some people think, Overcrowding means more people this means we use more natural resources this means the earth in the end isn’t going to have enough resources to support the growing population. Remember every person on the planet takes up space which could be used for farmland, and forests.

The environmental pollution in most countries is really bad, and natural calamities happen frequently. However, people are still working more hours to get paid more; American consumers are still spending as much as before; the economy is growing. People tend to ignore the bad news and
Over the course of the war new weapons, vehicles and armor were created and for those who it protected or helped were the ones that most likely survived to fight another day. With the creation of these new technologies also can relief for the economy because the war economy took place where the normal economy was failing because the US was buying these new technologies from companies that were in the US which put money into the economy (war economy).

This is a problem because the way we treat the world around us is a direct reflection of our values and beliefs.
