"The Human Impact on the Natural Environment has become the classic student text on bow human activity has changed and continues to change the face of the earth. The fifth edition maintains the structure of the previous editions as it examines the impacts that humans have had on all aspects of the environment. Areas covered include vegetation, animals, soils, water, landforms, the atmosphere, climate, and future implications, particularly global warming.

The book also discusses the development of ideas on global change."--BOOK JACKET.
