1. Of the different kinds of ecosystem services, you learned about, discuss two that are important in your local area, village, forests and/or nation.
Each year in my town, lands are laid bare due to building or running of quarries, subdivisions, roads, clean fills as well as other developments or substantial regions of land are stripped of for plantation. Without proper erosion and sediment management, these actions can lead to accelerated onsite erosion and significantly increased sedimentation of lakes, waterways, estuaries and harbors. Erosion is a natural process that may be significantly accelerated by human activities, notably those that disturb the soil or that alter or remove plant life. All building activities hold the capacity to cause excessive loss of topsoil and soil erosion generally. Environmental stewardship practices for erosion prevention reduce the threat of environmental …show more content…
Plants: The most straightforward and most natural method to stop erosion is through putting plants. Plants create root systems, which prevents soil erosion and stabilizes earth.
Cover bald spots in our yard with plants or mulch.
Retaining Walls: Overflow water results in additional erosion, and retaining walls could be quite a productive method to stop soil erosion, if used with other systems.
4. One or two sentences or your own personal reflection on something you learned this week.
We all can play a part in preventing erosion and sedimentation from happening right from our own home. It may seem this issue is confined to farmers or local governments and they are going to get to be the ones that cope with it, but everyone is affected by erosion.
Same goes for wastes treatment. All of us can practice the three R’s in our daily lives. If everyone puts in little efforts to save the earth. I believe preserving the ecosystem can be a lot more easy and
