Presentation Slide # 12

p.874/7: Notes 16-1

Human Population is growing and it causes:

1. Pressures of waste disposal

2. Pressures on resources:• Water, food, wood, stone, metal and minerals• 3% of Earth’s water is freshwater, 2/3 is ice • 1/5 of the population uses more than ½ of the

world’s resources

3. Pressures on Urban Growth:• High population density increases pressure• Large number of people in an area changes

the landscape.

4. Pressures of Expanding land Use:• Suburban Development: Building homes,

malls & new roads in areas around cities.• Natural Habitats are destroyed• Loss of productive farmland (less food

produced locally)• Increases the need for cars which decreases

air quality

Presentation Slide # 13

p.884/8: Explore: Sharing Resources/ Acrostic Activity

What did you think?• Did you get a fair share of your group’s objects?

• How does the number of people in each group affect the outcome?

• Was the job made easier when trading occurred across groups?

Presentation Slide # 14

p.894/8: Notes 16-2

Renewable: Can be used over again.• Ex: Trees, Energy from sunlight, water

Nonrenewable: Can not be replaced• Ex: coal & natural gas (fossil fuels)

Pollutant: • Makes air, water, land harmful for life.

Biodiversity:• Variety of life is destroyed by pollution

1. Air Quality:• Motor Vehicles, factories power plants, cid

Rain

2. Water Quality:• Chemicals drain off from farms and landfills

3. Removing Habitat• Deforestation

4. Changing the Habitat• Invasive Species: New species that competes

with native species for resources

Presentation Slide # 16

p.914/9: Notes 16-3

Conservation: The process of saving or protecting a natural resource

1. Local Efforts:

– Taking action in your own community

2. Federal Efforts

– Clean Air Act, Endangered Species Act

– Government works with scientists to write laws

3. Sustainable Practices

– Conservation Tillage: Cuts soil erosion

– Cutting Selectively: Reduces erosion and encourages rapid re-growth

– Geothermal Power: Uses heat of molten rock in Earth’s interior

– Hydropower: From Falling water

– Wind: Energy of moving air into electricity

– Solar Energy: Used to generate electricity

4. Reducing Waste and Pollution

– Carpooling

– Home: Thermostat, insulation

– Recycling

Presentation Slide # 17

Reviewing Key Concepts: p. 269

10.____ A limiting factor that depends on the size of the population in a given area is a:

11.____ Density Independent limiting factors include:

12.____ Which are abiotic factors in an environment?

13.____ Which is an example of competition for resources?

Thinking Critically: p. 270

24. Wolves are the natural predator of moose. During one season the moose population increased dramatically. What could have caused the increase in the moose population?

25. Why do you suppose that the growth rate of human populations differs dramatically in different countries?

26. Human activity has resulted in the decline of many populations of other species. Choose one example of how humans have put pressure on species around the world and describe ways that humans can avoid causing continued decreases in these populations.

Presentation Slide # 18

p.934/10: Notes Chapter 8

Limiting Factors:

The factor that prevents the continuing growth of a population in an ecosystem

1. Density Dependent: Ex: Competition, disease

2. Density Independent: Ex: weather, fire

Human Populations are growing because:

– Able to expand habitat to many climates

– Technology

– Availability of resources

– Lack of predators

– Survival of offspring to reproduce

Human Population growth affects the environment

– Introduction of New Species

Ex: Zebra Mussels in MN lakes

– Pollution

Ex: Waste from factories, farming

– Over-fishing

Ex: Lobster & Tuna numbers are low

– Habitat Destruction

Ex: Deforestation, Draining wetlands
