Human activities contribute to climate change by causing changes in Earth's atmosphere in the amounts of greenhouse gases, aerosols (small particles), and cloudiness. The largest known contribution comes from the burning of fossil fuels, which releases carbon dioxide gas to the atmosphere

Humans impact on the environment can be either positive or negative

In a positive way, humans are classified as animals and they breathe out carbon dioxide for plants use. Plants need carbon dioxide for survival

In a negative way, humans build houses and engage in industrialization activities. To do this, humans need to clear land. This involves the destruction of plants and forests. When there are no plants or trees, it leads to global warming and climate change which destroys the environment. Hope I helped. Have a nice day
