Question

Alaska contains over 127 million acres of untouched forest land. It is the largest state in the United States, yet with a population of nearly 700,000 people it has the same total population as Austin, Texas. New Jersey is one of the smallest states and home to a population of nearly 9 million, but almost 1.8 million of its 4.4 million total land acres are untouched natural woodland. What are the reasons for the ways populations organize themselves, and what effect does this organization have on the environment?
