Human Ecosystems - Softcover
This book is about the ecosystems dominated by people. Humans, just as any other species, interact with other animals, as well as with plants and their nonliving environment. Whether or not we recognize it, we are part of the ecosystems in which we participate and have been since the dawn of our lineage. We have been able to mold the shape of ecosystems and maintain them in useful states for at least 10,000 years. Our ability to mold and maintain new ecosystems oriented toward specific goals has increased steadily since then. Today our world is changing faster than ever before. it is becoming more complex, and it is increasingly harder to keep the factors that control this complexity in perspective. Factors that appear at first to be unrelated to ecological phenomena bring major environmental change Event in seemingly remote areas can affect countries around the world. [preface]
