*Humans have had a constant need for almost every resource on planet earth. Yet do we ever put back what we took?
*Hardly ever do we replace resources that we had taken. In very few states, they have laws that require you to replant trees and other plants that are important in some way.
Human Impact on Natural Resources
*With a constant disposal, comes a constant need for production of that resource. Humans are pretty good on water and air, yet water and air quality is ever decreasing, but as for some of the others... not so much.
*Our natural minerals, gasses and fuels are rapidly decreasing in quantity. Most world conferences have been about pointing fingers at who is doing it or who is to blame.
*Most of our resources are renewable and come from somewhere that is managed by master scientists. Yet, sometimes those scientists don’t make the best decisions.
*On those rare occurrences that those scientists make a screw-up, they try to fix it the best they can by either restocking/renewing to telling the world that this resource is even rarer than before.
*All in all, humans impact almost everything on the planet, even if we do everything right. Now, we are beginning to exhaust some of the rarer resources.
