Description of  Changing Planet: What Is the Environmental Impact of Human Migration and Settlement? (Investigating Human Migration & Settlement (Paperback))

From the earliest times humans have shaped and changed the landscape. Historical and modern-day examples in this interesting book show how natural habitats and wilderness areas are destroyed as people need more land for farming and to build towns and cities, and how increasing urbanization of populations is adding to the problem of carbon emissions that cause climate change.
