Human+Activity

In the world today, we as humans impact everything. We impact the economy, the public, the environment, etc. Therefore, we need to realize that much of the world's astonishing beauties are being destroyed by us. Pollution, cutting down forests, and car emissions are just some of the few negative impacts we make that have an effect on these gorgeous places. When we cut down forests, not only are we losing some of the oxygen producers in the world, but we also are losing the main nitrogen absorbing organisms! We NEED trees! Furthermore, polluting the environment with trash, smoke, and cars has a negative impact on the environment and its' organisms.

Don't Believe Me?

More specifically to Arthur's Pass National Park, providing infrastructure for people has an impact. Building roads, railways, houses, and buildings all ruin habitats and cause disturbance. Cars kill a lot of birds and trash causes damage to the water supply.

Humans impact the biogeochemical cycles of the ecosystem as well. A biogeochemical cycle is the cycling of chemical elements that are needed to live, between the nonliving and living parts of that ecosystem. A biogeochemical cycle that humans impact in Arthur's Pass National Park would be the nitrogen cycle because by cutting down trees, you are losing nitrogen absorbers.
