How do humans effect the earth?

Answer 1

Not as much as we take credit for...

Answer 2

the effects of humans on earth can be seen from many points of view.

When you look at pollution it's quite obvious: the CO2 levels in the atmosphere have increased exponentially since the industrial revolution. A lot of temperate forest (mainly in Europe) have been severely damaged by acid rains (which is also a product of the gasses emitted by the industry and transport sector).

Habitat loss for many species is a direct consequence of human effects (urbanisation and agriculture, are still growing in order to supply a growing human population which is adding more stress to the environment than ever before.)

Besides these rather bad effect there are also good effect of humans on this planet.

The Sahel region is getting greener thanks to the tree-planting program that was introduced there.

Summarising I can say that the human race have the power to decide how the earth is going to be in the future.
