Human intervention on nature
disrupts ecological balance
thereby creating problems with
long term effects that include
global warming, climatic changes,
and ozone layer depletion.
Deforestation, mining,
urbanization, pollution, depleting
natural resources like over-
harvesting, over collection of
wildlife, indiscriminate disposal of
waste are some of the ways that
humans had impacted the
environment.
H. Making generalization
and abstractions
about the lesson Humans as the causative agent of
environmental destruction can also
be an agent of change, that is by
engaging activities that minimize
its impact on the environment.
Reforestation or tree planting,
Waste segregation, the use of 4rs-
reduce, reuse, recycle and repair,
organic gardening is among the
best activities that man can do to
minimize its effect on the
environment thereby making the

balance.
