East Africa Goal: is to understand the “symbiotic relationship” between humans and their physical environment.

Brainstorm… What can people do to harm the environment? What might the environment do to harm people? How might culture be influenced by a person’s environment?

Human – Environment Interaction Cause Effect East Africa has resources East Africa is behind in industrialization (limited electricity) Poverty in East Africa Conflict between humans Imperial powers take those resources. East Africans cut down trees harming the wildlife’s habitat People are going to illegally hunt or kill wildlife. Destroys the environment

South Africa Human-Environment Interaction continued

South Africa’s resources Southern Africa is the continent’s richest region in natural resources It is the world’s largest producer of platinum, chromium, and gold, and one of the largest producers of diamonds In the 1990s, rebels captured Angola’s mines and sold the diamonds to continue a 20-year old civil war against the government. Groups have mined diamonds to pay for rebellions and other violent conflicts. Diamonds used for this purpose are called blood diamonds

South African Wildlife Southern Africa is known for its variety of animal life. Wildebeests, lions, zebras, giraffes, and many other animals are found across the region. Poaching, or illegally killing game, is a problem. Poachers shoot elephants for their valuable ivory tusks and rhinoceroses for their horns.
