Ten ways in which modern human beings have conquered nature rather than adjusting to it

Answer:

Explanation:

Humans impact the physical environment in many ways: overpopulation, pollution, burning fossil fuels, and deforestation. Changes like these have triggered climate change, soil erosion, poor air quality, and undrinkable water.

Like early humans, modern humans gathered and hunted food. They evolved behaviors that helped them respond to the challenges of survival. The first modern humans shared the planet with at least three species of early humans. Over time, as modern humans spread around the world, the other three species became extinct.

Plastic pollution, deforestation, and air pollution are only some of the ways humans are damaging the environment. We as humans have become dependent on luxuries such as cars, houses, and even our cell phones. ... Things like overconsumption, overfishing, deforestation are dramatically impacting our world.

This term is defined as humans' innate need to affiliate with other life such as plants and animals. This essentially means that humans have a desire to be near nature. This built in desire may be the result of spending the majority of our evolutionary history (over 99%) closely connected to nature.

Answer:

Most of the acts that distinguish human beings from animals are examples of humans conquering nature rather than adjusting to it. The basic ten are listed below.

Explanation:

Fire: The very invention and use of controlled fire itself was an intervention by humans in the natural way of functioning and altering it.
Agriculture: even though agriculture seems natural, altering the natural way of a plant's growth process according to our needs and wants was a conquest of nature.
Deforestation: cutting down trees on a large scale for multiple needs, including paper, wood, land,etc. This created a huge decrease in the rate of forest and forest resources. Its results are still experiencing ozone depletion, soil erosion, climatic change and what not.
Consumption: Human have consumed more than they needed, whether it is land, water, forest, or resources.Extinction of various animals and water scarcity are some of the after effects of this over conception.
Houses: unlike any other living organisms on earth which rely on nature for their own shelter, man made houses using unnatural or man made objects.
plastic: invention, which was a curse for nature. The sole source of earth pollution was an attack on nature, which we continue to do.
Vehicles are the main contributor to ozone depletion. Vehicles play a large role in the current climate change we face.
Factories: The establishment of factories resulted in water, air, soil, and noise pollution.
Electronics: in addition to the water and soil pollution caused by the littering of these non-biodegradable materials, by-products created during the manufacturing process were also harmful to the environment.
Technology: to a certain extent, technology can be considered as the apex point of human conquest over nature. It has altered the ways of nature on various different levels and continues to do so.
