Activity 1.Look at the map on p. 100 of your text. (a) What is the name of the ecozone you live in? (b) What image comes to mind when you think about that ecozone?

Characteristics of Ecozones Geology Climate Landforms Soil Wildlife Natural Vegetation Humans Water

People Affect Ecozones People affect nature and can affect it in different ways-this is why ecozones include humans and their activities Humans are accelerating the pace of change in ecozones Humans cause serious and sometimes irreversible damage. (smoggy air, polluted water, diasppearing forests and animals, collapse of fisheries)

Biodiversity Some ecozones have many more different species of plants and animals living within them than others Some places in ecozones such as wetlands are “hot spots” of biodiversity.
