Humans impact the physical environment in many ways: pollution, burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and more. Changes like these have triggered climate change, soil erosion, poor air quality, mass extinction, and undrinkable water, among other effects. These negative impacts can affect human behavior and can prompt mass migrations or battles over clean water. Help your …

environmental geology in the geoenvironment management is the care of its rational use and protection. The concept rational use of the geoenvironment covers generally these aspects: 1. Most useful from point of view of economic demands 2. Without harmful impacts on geoenvironment and landscape 3. Technical and economic unpretending 4.
Strategies for Balancing Economic Geology and Environment. To strike a balance between economic geology and the environment, a number of strategies can be employed. These include: Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs): These assessments evaluate the potential environmental impacts of mining and mineral extraction before the start of ...
for the effects that human activities have upon the karst environment. Much of the concern is motivated by the adverse envi-ronmental impacts of previous human activities in karst areas and the effects that those impacts have had on the quality of life. Many human activities can negatively impact karst areas, includ-
Transactions of the American Clinical and Climatological Association, 2005. The impact on human health by natural materials such as water, rocks, and minerals has been known for thousands of years but there have been few systematic, multidisciplinary studies on the relationship between geologic materials and processes and human health (the field of study commonly referred to as …

Fluvial Megafans on Earth and Mars - May 2023. Fluvial fans and megafans are being re-evaluated in terms of their importance for sediment distribution in present-day continental basins, with evidence that their thick alluvial successions have contributed to the aggradation of much larger fractions of the stratigraphic record than previously recognised.
