Any help here : summarize the effects of human population growth and catastrophic events on ecosystems

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What, you mean like when growing populations of humans harm ecosystems? Some examples of that are over-fishing, deforestation, massive burning of fossil fuels, and destroying the habitats of animals leading to extinction.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

basically you have to summarize in 5 sentences the effect of human population growth and the effect of catastrophic events on ecosystems .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Catastrophic events in what context? Like natural disasters? Or like the extinction of a species due to human interference?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

both but if one wass to be chosen id say number 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cool. So the examples I gave above are a good place to start. You start your 5 sentences with talking about how the human population is growing, and then you explain how this has led to deforestation, the destruction of animal habitats, burning of fossil fuels, etc. Does that make sense?
