Discussion:
Comparing the causes of global environmental change Environmental changes have been happening since Earth's beginning. Many naturally-occurring events, such as volcano eruptions and hurricanes, led to changes in various aspects of Earth's environment. However, human population growth and dramatic lifestyle changes resulting from industrialization are leading to substantial impacts on the natural environment. Distinguishing the causes of environmental change is important-behavior can be modified with hopes of leading to less environmental damage. Determine whether the following examples are either nature- or human-induced causes of global environmental change. Drag the appropriate items into their respective bins.
