Understanding Affect and Effect in Nature
The health of our planet can be significantly impacted by human activities. When pollution affects the balance of ecosystems, it often leads to long-term environmental effects. For example, deforestation can affect the amount of oxygen produced by trees, which in turn impacts the overall climate. Scientists continuously study how these changes affect wildlife and plant species, emphasizing the importance of sustainable practices to reduce negative effects. Public awareness campaigns aim to influence people's behavior to minimize harmful effects on the environment, showing that individual actions can affect the broader ecosystem.
