Humans impact the physical environment in many ways: overpopulation, pollution, burning fossil fuels, and deforestation. Changes like these have triggered climate change, soil erosion, poor air quality, and undrinkable water. Which could lead to humans becoming extinct in the next 50 years.

A person could cause pollution by littering. Most of trash is burned into the atmosphere which can release toxins and, or other diseases. These toxins could cause health problems such as respiratory issues. These toxins could even be a starting base for acid rain.

Feel free to copy and paste or change some words up. I don,t mind.

Hope this helps!
