What do humans do to mountains?
Human activities like mining, livestock, energy production and tourism impact on Mountains. Human activities pollute mountains, change them, and change the complex interaction network of the species communities living there.
How can we protect northern mountains?
Studying vulnerable and endangered species. Working with local communities to help them live in harmony with wildlife. Promoting green infrastructure development. Creating an effective poaching control network.
Why do we need to protect and preserve our mountains?
They help us by improving air and water quality; they are a refuge for biodiversity, they help reduce erosion in areas of steep terrain and they are obvious physical barriers protecting us from natural disasters such as landslides, mudflows or rockslides.
What can we get from mountains?
Maize, potatoes, barley, sorghum, quinoa, tomatoes and apples - six of the 20 plant species that supply most of the world's food - originated in mountain areas.
How do mountains help the Earth?
Mountains are the world's “water towers,” providing 60-80% of all freshwater resources for our planet. At least half of the world's population depends on mountain ecosystem services to survive – not only water, but also food and clean energy.
What do the Himalayas prevent?
Climate of the Himalayas
By virtue of its location and stupendous height, the Great Himalaya Range obstructs the passage of cold continental air from the north into India in winter and also forces the southwesterly monsoon (rain-bearing) winds to give up most of their moisture before crossing the range northward.
What are impacts of good things that mountain give to us?
Mountains also provide us with many important goods, including wood, pastures for livestock, drinking water and clean air. All are provided by mountain ecosystems, through complex processes, that are maintained by the community of different species and their interactions between them and with the abiotic environment.
How can you help conserving and preserving the natural sources of these minerals?
Measures to conserve minerals resources are as follows: Use of minerals in a planned and sustainable manner, recycling of metals. Use of alternative renewable substitutes. Improvising the technology so that low-grade ores can be used profitably.
What are three ways to conserve resources?
Conservation means saving resources. To save natural resources, follow the three "R"s: reduce, reuse, and recycle.
How could we save the Earth?
You can adopt a number of habits to save earth. These include avoiding bottled water, replacing car trips with biking and walking whenever possible, reducing food waste and composting, switching to LED lightbulbs, and planting bird and bee-friendly gardens.
Which activity is useful and help to save our planet?
Recycle. Make this as your mantra: “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle”. Reduce waste by not buying disposable items. Reuse items like paper, cloth or plastic so they don't end up in landfills.
